Former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson said that Donald Trump would throw food against the wall once or twice a week as president.

In an interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Wednesday, Hutchinson said the former president would react to bad news by throwing food.

"Sometimes it would happen once or twice a week, sometimes more. Sometimes there'd be a week or so lull, but then there would be a bad news story," she said.

"But it wasn't just launching the food and the plates and the porcelain at the wall. It was sometimes just flipping the tablecloth," she added.

Hutchinson served as an aide to Trump's former chief of staff Mark Meadows from March 2020 through the end of the Trump administration.

In testimony in front of the January 6 committee last year, Hutchinson said that Trump threw his lunch across the room after he found out that then-Attorney General William Barr gave an interview saying there was no widespread voter fraud in the 2020 election.

"There was ketchup dripping down the wall and a shattered porcelain plate on the floor," Hutchinson testified, adding that she grabbed a towel to wipe the sauce off.

Trump responded to her comments at the time, writing on Truth Social that he actually wanted to throw his lunch at his former lawyer Rudy Giuliani, but that he ducked, according to The New Yorker.

"Lyin' Cassidy said that I threw my lunch at the wall," Trump wrote at the time. "I actually threw it at Rudy Giuliani, and he ducked."

"It was a perfect throw," he said.

A representative for Trump did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.

Hutchinson also told Kimmel that Trump had a fear of being poisoned that affected his eating habits.

He would ask for small glass bottles of Heinz ketchup "because he likes to hear his valet or whoever is serving him a meal, he likes to hear the pop when he opens it."

Trump likes fast-food chains like McDonald's in part because of a "longtime fear of being poisoned," the journalist Michael Wolff also wrote in his 2018 book "Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House."
