Michelle Obama is hosting a brand new children’s cooking show on Netflix, with the help of some adorable little puppets. The former first lady is launching
Waffles + Mochi, a 10-episode series that aims to introduce children to food from all around the world.
Michelle Obama will be stepping in front of the camera as the host of
Waffles + Mochi, the latest project under her and former President Barack Obama’s partnership with Netflix. While the pair have mostly produced the titles through their production banner Higher Ground, Obama will be putting on her hosting hat for
Waffles + Mochi, launching on the streaming service on March 16, 2021. The series will consist of ten 20-minute episodes.
“I’m beyond thrilled to share that on March 16, I’ll be launching a new show on Netflix called Waffles + Mochi! I’m excited for families and children everywhere to join us on our adventures as we discover, cook, and eat delicious food from all over the world,” said Obama.
“I’m also excited to work with Partnership for a Healthier America to help kids build healthy habits and help families in need cook with fresh ingredients together at home. I hope you’ll join us by watching on March 16!”
