Tamales have the power of merging family. Christmas eve in Mexico means interacting and bonding with the whole family. When the holiday season begins and everybody gathers at Grandmother’s house you can trace the smell of tamales getting cook in the kitchen mixed with the smell of cinnamon. The Christmas tree is bursting with presents and on the side the nativity scene which is always present in a Catholic Mexican family. The table is brimming in flavors, with a variety of dessert and snacks and delicious hot drinks. As appetizing as the table looks the whole family is barely touching the food because the tamales are almost ready and everybody wants to eat as many tamales as possible. When the tamales are ready it means that Christmas Eve celebration is staring. Everyone from the oldest in the house to the youngest gets a plate and eats as many tamales as possible while sharing stories and laughs. The tamales are the main guest of the celebration. The tamales are a traditional Mexican food that can be traced to the Aztecs. The word tamale comes from the Aztec word tamalii which means wrapped food. The Aztec women would cook the tamales for the soldiers because they were easy to carry and eat. Today making tamales is a bonding event for all the women in the family,

For the last few months, there has been a hype over a local taco joint called Torchy’s Tacos located on West McDermott in Allen. From people giving it such a positive review, I decided to give it a try. As someone who is a lover of tacos, including breakfast tacos, I knew I would be a tough critic over Torchy’s. After I went to Torchy’s twice, I decided to give it two thumbs up.

eating food products that consist of whole grains is also one of the best ways to increase fiber in your diet. Whole grain food includes cereal, whole-wheat bread, and brown rice.

The first thing you will need to do is gather everything that is essential to the task. This should be simple because there are only eight ingredients. They consist of flour tortillas, refried beans, ground beef, grated cheese, green onions, tomatoes, mushroom soup, and

Tradition has been said to mirror a way of life. Observation has concluded that participants in tradition “actively construct as well as reflect culture and community” (Sacks 275). For most people in the 21st century, tradition only reveals itself during special times or certain seasons. For others it is simply a way of life. The foodways of Mexicans and Native Americans are of particular interest in this study because of the food that grew from necessity and is maintained as sacred or reserved for only special occasions. The tamale is one such food. Significantly changed and altered throughout history it has remained a

In the past Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc. has put up many ads on huge billboards. There is one ad in particular that stakes a claim about it’s ranking of their ingredients among competitors. The ad reads “WE WANTED TO WRITE ABOUT OUR LOCALLY SOURCED NATURAL INGREDIENTS, BUT SHORT BILLBOARD HEADLINES ARE BETTER” (Liebelson). Although Chipotle is claiming that the quality of their ingredients are better, it leaves the consumer wondering what exactly is so good about the products that go into their foods. It is wrong that more information about Chipotle and their ingredients aren’t found on the ad as it may cause a lot of misunderstanding and deception amongst the consumers. These people may think that they’re eating the best and healthiest ingredients but in actuality they are taking in food that has caused many health issues in the past.

Do you like ordering chicken enchiladas at your favorite Mexican restaurant? This meal is not difficult to make at home, but what do you do when you crave enchiladas when camping. The solution is to use a hot campfire to make dutch oven enchiladas.

Not only are tamales good to eat, but they bring so much more to the table, they bring laughter, memories and most important family. They bring families together every year across different communities throughout the nation, and abroad to me, tamales are a combination of good times, love, and togetherness all wrapped up and presented like a gift for the soul around the holidays.

    My fiber intake was only 32% of the recommended daily intake. I definitely feel that my fiber intake over the three days was excessively low. Fiber is an important part of your diet and a female such as me should consume 20 grams of fiber each day.  Fiber is important for flushing out the body’s waste. A buildup of waste is bad for the body and can lead to many diseases that cause severe damage to the body. Some of the problems caused are colon cancer, obesity, and diabetes (Harvard, School of Public Health, 2012). The only fiber that I consumed during the three days was from the white bread and pizza that I ate. In the future, I will consume more fiber rich foods such as fruits and vegetables. Some examples of foods that are high in fiber would include pears, apples, bananas, black beans, and

Mexican cuisine is a style of food that originates in Mexico. It is known for its varied flavors, colorful decoration, and variety of spices and ingredients, many of which are native to the country. What makes a meal distinctly Mexican, of course, are the lively seasonings. Not all Mexican recipes are fiery, though; while renowned for their heat, many subtle and intriguing spice combinations are also found in Mexican fare.

During the three days of documented intake, my fiber consumption was only 24.3% of the daily recommendation. Fiber helps promote proper digestive functions, helps lower cholesterol, and helps in lowering the risk of diabetes and heart disease. My intake was too low based on the recommended consumption, and according to the data, I should eat more foods that are rich in fiber. These can be insoluble fiber sources like wheat bran and nuts or soluble fiber sources like oats, beans, and apples. The only foods that provided fiber in my meals were the bagels.
