♪ ♪ ♪ >> Stephen: HEY, EVERYBODY,
WE'RE BACK WITH THE AUTHOR OF "BECOMING" AND THE STAR AND
PRODUCER OF "WAFFLES + MOCHI" ON NETFLIX, MICHELLE OBAMA.
LET'S DO A QUICK SPEED ROUND.
WE'RE ALL ABOUT PROMOTING BETTER FOOD CHOICES.
WE DON'T ADVERTISE ANY PROCESSED HOODZ ON "L "LATE SHOW,"" RIGHT?
>> NO.
>> Stephen: IT'S CALLED CHOOSE OR LOSE.
APPLES OR ORANGES?
>> ORANGES.
>> Stephen: THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT ONE-- CANTALOUPE OR
HONEY DUE.
>> I DON'T LIKE EITHER.
I DON'T LIKE HONEY DEW-- LONG-STANDING --
>> Stephen: I CAN UNDERSTAND NOT LIKING CANTALOUPE BECAUSE
IT'S A TRASH FRUIT.
>> IT'S WATERY.
>> Stephen: IT'S ON THERE JUST TO FILL OUT THE BUFFET.
>> I HATE WHEN IT'S ON THERE.
THOSE CUBES.
AND THEN THEY KIT CUTINTO THE RIND.
IT'S NEVER GOOD.
.>> Stephen: IT'S LIKE BARK.
>> WATERMELON I LIKE.
>> Stephen: SEEDED OR SEEDLESS?
>> I DON'T CARE, JUICY.
>> Stephen: I LIKE THE SEEDS.
>> YOU LUKE TO SPIT THEM BACK OUT AT PEOPLE.
>> Stephen: IT'S A PARTY GAME.
>> SO TELLING.
>> Stephen: CHOCOLATE OR VANILLA.
>> CHOCOLATE ALL THE WAY.
I DON'T EVEN UNDERSTAND VANILLA.
VANILLA IS JUST A SORT OF DISAPPOINTING CHOCOLATE.
>> Stephen: THERE IS VANILLA IN CHOCOLATE, BUT THERE'S NO
CHOCOLATE IN VANILLA.
>> YEAH.
>> Stephen: DID I JUST BLOW YOUR MIND?
>> YOU DID.
I HAVE TO THINK ABOUT THAT FOR A MINUTE.
>> Stephen: THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT CHICAGO QUESTION: DEEP
DISH OR THIN CRUST?
>> THIN CRUST, I GREW UP ON THE SOUTH SIDE.
>> Stephen: THERE'S NO DEEP DISH ON THE SOUTH SIDE?
>> WELL, THERE IS A KIND OF THIN CRUST, THIS PIZZERIA IN MY
NEIGHBORHOOD, ITALIAN FIESTA, THIN, SUARE PIZZA.
THAT'S AN INTERESTING, UNIQUE FEATURE OF CHICAGO PIZZA.
BUT I DO LIKE CERTAIN DEEP DISH.
THERE'S A GINO'S EAST.
IT'S NOT THE STUFFED PIZZA, BUT IT'S THE-- YOU KNOW, IT'S GOT,
LIKE SORKT OF A CRACKER CRUST TO IT WITH A THICK LAYER.
>> Stephen: A BUTTER CRUST.
FANTASTIC.
WHAT I LIKE ABOUT CHICAGO PIZZA IS IT'S REALLY JUST A BABY POOL
FILLED WITH CHEESE AND SAUCE.
>> THAT'S ALL YOU NEED IN LIFE.
>> Stephen: SNORKEL, STRAIGHT IN.
CHEESECAKE OR CHEESE STEAK.
>> CHEESE STEAK.
>> Stephen: BLEU CHEESE OR RANCH?
>> RANCH.
>> SURF OR TURF?
>> TURF.
I HAD TO REMEMBER WHICH ONE IS WHICH.
STEAK.
>> Stephen: FRUIT SALAD OR ACTUAL DESSERT?
>> ACTUAL DESSERT.
I AM ALWAYS KIND OF DISAPPOINTED WHEN THEY BRING OUT-- YOU
PRETEND, "OH, I'M SO GLAD WE'RE HAVING BERRIES."
WHEN YOU'RE REALLY THINKING, "WHERE'S THE PIE?"
>> Stephen: OKAY, THIS IS NOMENCLATURE-- STUFFING OR
DRESSING?
>> OH, THAT'S TRUE.
>> Stephen: VERY IMPORTANT.
>> YOU KNOW, GROWING UP, IT WAS DRESSING.
IT WAS DRESSING WHEN I WAS GROWING UP.
>> Stephen: YOU HAVE TO STUFF IT IN THE BIRD.
DO YOU STUFF IT IN THE BIRD?
>> YES, YES.
>> Stephen: THEN IT'S STUFFING.
>> YOU'VE GOT ME THINKING ABOUT IT.
BUT YOU ASK, WHAT DO WE CALL IT?
IT'S DRESSING, I GREW UP, COMPLAIN TO MY DEAD GRANDMOTHER.
DISAGREE WITH HER, OKAY.
>> Stephen: OKAY.
SMALL POPCORN OR LARGE POPCORN, KEEP IN MIND, LARGE IS ONLY
$1.25 MORE AND YOU GET FREE REFILLS.
>> LARGE POPCORN.
THE SMALL IS A SCAM.
>> Stephen: THANK YOU!
>> IT'S A SCAM.
>> Stephen: WAFFLES OR MOCHI AS A FOOD?
>> OH... NO, I CAN'T GO THERE.
>> Stephen: WAFFLES OR MOCHI AS A HOST?
>> THAT'S LIKE CHOOSING BETWEEN YOUR CHILDREN.
NOW IT'S PERSON.
>> Stephen: I WENT TO A PARTY AT THE WHITE HOUSE-- I'M GOING
TO FACT CHECK YOU HERE EYE WENT TO A PARTY AT THE WHITE HOUSE,
AND YOU SERVED WAFFLES.
>> AND CHICKEN.
>> Stephen: >> Stephen: CHICKEN, ALL
RIGHT.
THERE WAS NO MOCHI AT THIS PARTY?
>> THAT'S BEFORE I KNEW MOCHI.
>> Stephen: OKAY.
>> I'VE BECOME CLOSE TO MOCHI, AND I FEEL DIFFERENTLY.
>> Stephen: WE'RE RAPIDLY APPROACHING THE END OF THIS
INTERVIEW.
HERE WE GO.
OKAY-- >> I HAVEN'T BEEN AROUND PEOPLE
IN SO LONG!
>> Stephen: I HAVEN'T, EITHER!
LITERALLY, MY LIFE IS THAT GUY AND MY STAGE MANAGER.
>> I KNOW!
IT'S SO MUCH FUN!
DON'T LET IT END!
( LAUGHTER )
HUSBAND.
AND I'VE SEEN HIM.
>> Stephen: I HEAR GOOD THINGS, THOUGH, I HEARED GO
THINGS.
>> HE'S GOOD, BUT I'M HAVING SO MUCH FUN.
>> Stephen: I THINK ANOTHER BREAK IS IN ORDER.
GO BREAK.
COME BACK, THOUGH.
