Michelle Obama and puppet pals heading to Netflix for new educational kids’ series

It might feel a little surreal to see Michelle Obama sharing the joys of food with puppets on a Netflix show, but her work on the series isn't all that far-fetched. After all, she did develop a garden with more than 50 types of vegetables on the White House's South Lawn in 2009. And during her eight years as the first lady, she initiated a number of campaigns promoting food advocacy, healthy eating and physical wellness for kids. She even championed the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act, aimed at improving the nutritional value of food served as school lunches, which was eventually signed into law by her husband in 2010.
