Saturday Kitchen viewers in hysterics as chef Poppy O'Toole uses X-rated word trends now

Viewers of Saturday Kitchen were left in hysterics this weekend when a guest asked what a 'quim' was live on television.

Poppy O'Toole, 28, appeared on the BBC One show to cook for singer and Britain's Got Talent judge Alesha Dixon.

The chef explained how she started a TikTok page to share potato-related content after she was made redundant from a job.

Poppy told how she soon went on to amass 4million followers on the app, which she was surprised at because she started her account 'on a quim'.

Realising she made a mistake, host Matt Tebbutt, 49, corrected her, insisting she'd started her TikTok page 'on a whim'.

A bemused Poppy went on to quiz Matt on what a 'quim' was, with the presenter awkwardly skirting over the matter.

The word 'quim' is defined by the Collins dictionary as being a British vulgar, slang noun for female genitals.

Amused viewers were quick to take to Twitter after watching the scenes unfold on screen. 

One person wrote: 'I want to be emotionally compensated for having my mum ask me what "quim" means. #SaturdayKitchen.'

Someone else shared: '#saturdaykitchen did she really just ask what a “quim” was?'

While another person posted: 'Poppy O’Toole is my new hero #SaturdayKitchen #quim.'

Someone else wrote: 'I’m here writing lecture notes about Tragi-Comedy but I can’t stop laughing about the quim slip of the tongue. #SaturdayKitchen #Quimgate.'

While another person posted: 'Wonderful wonderful scenes as the world quim gets said twice instead of whim on #SaturdayKitchen. Highlight of the year so far.'
