The K\"unneth formula is one of the basic tools for computing cohomology. Its validity for foliated cohomology, that is, for the tangential de Rham cohomology of a foliated manifold, is investigated. The main difficulty encountered is the non-Hausdorff nature of the foliated cohomology spaces, forbidding the completion of the tensor product. The results presented here are a K\"unneth formula when both factors have Hausdorff foliated cohomology, a K\"unneth formula when one factor has Hausdorff finite-dimensional foliated cohomology and a counterexample to an alternative version of the K\"unneth formula. The proof of the second result involves a right inverse for the foliated de Rham differential.
