TORONTO — Corus Entertainment’s YTV today announced a new series called Kid Food Nation, produced in partnership with PC Children’s Charity, will premiere later this month on YTV and StackTV.
Hosted by YTV’s Spencer Litzinger and Tyra Sweet (pictured left to right), Kid Food Nation (4 episodes x 11 minutes) will air Monday, November 23 to Thursday, November 26 at 6 p.m. ET on YTV.
The series features “KFN Heroes” — young cooks with local know-how — and well-known Canadian chefs who will take viewers on a food tour to explore the science, ingredients and cultures of Canadian cuisine. Each episode centres around a locally grown produce, beginning with chili peppers, followed by eggs, soy and corn.
Celebrity chefs appearing on the show include Nick Liu, Lynn Crawford, Roger Mooking and Joseph Shawana, who will chat with Tyra and a KFN Hero about their favourite recipes made from the featured ingredient. Spencer will dish out fun facts and intriguing experiments in the Kid Food Nation headquarters.
In addition to airing on YTV, the series will be available live and on demand on StackTV, which is available on Amazon Prime Video.
