First Lady Michelle Obama danced with a turnip Tuesday and managed to make it look more adorable than dorky.

The first lady was participating in a Twitter Q&A when a President Obama impersonator asked her “on average, how many calories do you burn every time you ‘turn up?'”

She didn’t respond with a number, but she did post a vine of her dancing to DJ Snake and Lil Jon’s “Turn Down For What” with a turnip clutched in her right hand.

Now the hit song will forever be associated with eating your vegetables.
