      Becky Krystal Washington Post Think "Sesame Street," "The Muppets," "Chef's Table," "The Lego Movie," "Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego?" and more all rolled into one. The fun facts come hard and fast. Apr 9, 2021 Full Review Hugo Rifkind Times (UK) It's fine, all this. I suppose small kids will like it well enough, if they have the sort of parents who will force them to watch it. Apr 9, 2021 Full Review Bethany Kaylor Salon.com Waffles + Mochi has given me something I haven't felt in a long time, especially during this lonely stretch of pandemic: hope. Apr 5, 2021 Full Review Jason Flatt But Why Tho? A Geek Community Waffles + Mochi is not a perfect response to the inadvertent harms of the Obama Administration’s food and nutrition policies, but it is an excellent kids show about food that adults can love too. Rated: 8/10 Jan 23, 2023 Full Review Aaron Barnhart Primetimer This well-done childrens' show is better than any dumbed-down E/I show I've ever seen, and will arguably do more to change people's eating habits than anything the USDA thinks it can do. Apr 9, 2021 Full Review Ashley Moulton Common Sense Media Waffles + Mochi is a fantastic, non-preachy way to get kids excited about healthy food. Rated: 4/5 Apr 9, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews
