WATCH: Chef Tyler Florence Talks His New Children’s Book On Today

Despite his bitchfest with Andrew Zimmern (well-documented in our Most Infamous Celebrity Chef Feuds), Tyler Florence is actually a very sweet chef/dad who writes children’s books for his kids. No, really! His current title in stores is called Tyler Makes Pancakes, which stars a little boy named Tyler and his dog, Tofu. They go on imaginary adventures together where they learn about food and where it comes from. We assume kids will be really sad when they get to the part about where their delicious morning bacon comes from. (Charlotte’s Web-style trauma. Legit.)

Check out this clip of Tyler on Today making his kids’ fave pancake recipe, which can be found in the back of Tyler Makes Pancakes.
