Obesidad/Obesity

Este episodio cuenta la leyenda de porque el faisan y el venado son los animales que identifican a Yucatán.
Atención que el español en Yucatán es un poco complicado porque aún tenemos muchas palabras mayas en nuestro hablar diario, si tienes dudas, no dudes en escribirme.
Palabras claves:
Itzamná: Dios maya soberano del cielo, del día y de la noche.
El Mayab: Yucatán
Los chilam: adivinos mayas
Entre las yerbas: En el campo
Aguadas: Lugar natural donde brota agua limpia 
Ceibas: árbol originario de Yucatán.
Pezuñas: mano o pie del venado.

Chapter 1, Exercise 12

From cheap student dinners to quick lunches and easy camping meals, people around the world love instant noodles.

According to the World Instant Noodle Association, the world ate more than 118 billion servings of instant noodles in 2021.

While they are easy to make, instant noodles can sometimes be a bit boring — but they don't have to be! So if you'd like your instant noodles to be a little tastier, here are some easy changes you can make:

Add flavor
Fresh ginger, green onions and garlic are found in many Asian dishes, and adding them to your instant noodles is an easy way to improve the taste.

Then, try adding extra sauces, like soy sauce, chili paste, oyster sauce, sesame oil or gochujang paste, among others. You could also try mixing a few of them together.

Add vegetables and eggs
Adding vegetables and eggs to your noodles will not only make them taste better — they'll also increase the nutrients in the dish.

Put an egg into the boiling water that your noodles are cooking in for an easy poached egg. You can also throw in some vegetables — like mushrooms, carrots or spinach — or cook them on their own and add them to your noodles afterward.

Add coconut milk
Add coconut milk to the noodle water to make a sweeter, creamier soup. You could then add some vegetables, meat or fish, and some lime and you'll end up with a dish that's similar to a Malaysian laksa — and just as tasty!
