Foodgod eats! Jonathan Cheban hit up Beverly Hills for lunch in the middle of his name change from the one his mother gave him to the one Kanye West gave him. Kim Kardashian’s bestie launched a bid to rebrand himself legally as “Foodgod,” after gaining notoriety for the moniker as he expanded his own empire. Click through RadarOnline.com’s gallery to see the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star living up to his new name.

Kanye West nicknamed his wife’s bestie “Foodgod,” and he decided to formally adopt the name.

Cheban explained his Diddy-esque move. “Everyone calls me Foodgod; scream it in the streets and run up to me in restaurants, and I want people calling me Foodgod when they write about me — not Jonathan or ‘BFF.’”

The ‘KUWTK’ star chowed down at Il Pastaio in Beverly Hills.

The artist formerly known as Kim Kardashians’ best friend was on the street after his meal.
