25 Years After Her Sad Demise, Arnold Schwarzenegger Exposes His Mother’s Bold Complaint Against America: “Americans Didn’t Know How to…”

Arnold Schwarzenegger traveled to America at age 21 to become the best bodybuilder in the world. From 1970 to 1975, he reigned the Mr. Olympia stage before deciding to take acting full-time. Despite his stringent bodybuilding diet, the 7x Mr. Olympia always made space for his mother’s dish, Kaiserschmarrn.

Currently, the 76-year-old is busy promoting his new self-help book, Be Useful: Seven Tools for Life. So, Arnie recently appeared on The Late Show, spilled the beans on his favorite dish, and shared his mother’s opinions on a few things.

Arnold Schwarzenegger’s recounts of his mother’s complaints

The Austrian Oak was born into an underprivileged family. Despite his childhood difficulties, Schwarzenegger never compromised on his bodybuilding dream. Though the family could afford meat only once a week, Schwarzenegger’s mother, Aurelia, ensured to cook Kaiserschmarrn, Arnie’s favorite dish.

The Governator recently appeared on The Late Show, and Stephen Colbert offered the guest a plate of a sweet dish, Kaiserschmarrn. An excited Arnie tasted the dish and recounted his early bodybuilding days when his mother would visit him in America. “There is no one who knows how to make Kaiserschmarrn. I don’t know anybody. I remember my mother used to come over, and she would stay with me. This was back in the 70s, and she would teach everyone how to make Kaiserschmarrn and how to make Wiener Schnitzel.“

Spilling beans on his mother’s complaints, Schwarzenegger confessed on the show, “It was funny. She felt that Americans didn’t know how to cook.” But Schwarzenegger would tell his mom, “Americans know how to cook really well. They just don’t know how to make Kaiserschmarrn or Wiener Schnitzel.” Earlier, Schwarzenegger shared his mom’s recipe for the sweet dish with his fitness family.

The Austrian Oak shared the Kaiserschmarrn recipe in the newsletter

The Terminator actor started his fitness newsletter, Arnold’s Pump Club, this year and shares healthy lifestyle mantras with his over half-a-million fitness family. But Arnie asks his tribe to indulge in sweet dishes occasionally. The 76-year-old confessed that life is not worth living if we restrict ourselves from sweet dishes, even during celebrations with family and friends.

Revealing his favorite dish, which his mom used to always fix him with, Schwarzenegger once said on an X (formerly Twitter)post, “Kaiserschmarrn! I actually shared her recipe with my newsletter to share it with the world!”

Despite the 25 years since his mom passed away, the 76-year-old still cherishes moments with her and often indulges in the sweet dish she used to make for him in his childhood. Do you want to try the Austrian sweet dish, Kaiserschmarrn, to treat your loved ones? Let us know in the comments below.
