APPETITE FOR DESTRUCTION

Natasha Leggero spills the beans on Rat in the Kitchen

Ready to roast! Comedian

Natasha Leggero has a knack for splitting sides — and she’ll follow suit as the cohost of Rat in the Kitchen (March 31 on TBS). The Broke alum dishes the details to Us.

Q: Tell Us about Rat in the Kitchen.

It’s a cooking competition with a twist: One of the chefs competing for the cash prize is also a saboteur trying to sabotage the others. [Cohost] Chef Ludo [Lefebvre] and I don’t know who the rat is either, so it’s like a cooking whodunit.

We’re also testing amazing food, but sometimes it’s revolting because the rat gets its hands in it.

Q: Did you learn anything about your own cooking skills as a cohost?

I’ve always known my cooking skills

are horrifying, and they didn’t get any better. However, my critiquing skills did, which my husband [Moshe Kasher] doesn’t appreciate since he does the cooking. Now I strive for excellence when I’m eating.

Q: Any other projects coming up? I have a book about parenthood coming out called The World Deserves My Children. You can also hear me on my podcast with my husband,

The Endless Honeymoon.
