Michelle Obama to star with puppets in new Netflix food show for kids

Michele Obama announced Tuesday she'll star in a new Netflix cooking show with puppets — which she said "in many ways is an extension of my work to support children's health" in her former role as first lady.

Driving the news: "Waffles + Mochi," which starts streaming next month, is "about good food: discovering it, cooking it, and of course, eating it," Obama said in an Instagram post.
