Welcome to Messy Bites — where nutrition science meets real mom life, with a side of culture, chaos, and amor. I’m here to help you navigate the beautifully messy world of feeding kids—with science, love, and maybe a tortilla or two. I’m Marina Chaparro, a pediatric registered dietitian, diabetes educator, and mamá of two. From “Is my kid From “Is my kid eating enough protein?” to “Are baby carrots even safe?”, we dive into the messy side of feeding with real stories, expert guests, and tips rooted in science (not fear). Let’s make feeding our kids less about guilt—and more about connection!

Surprising Food & Life Lessons from My Year Living in Mexico (Mérida Adventure Part 2) | EP 08

What happens when you leave it all behind and move to Mexico with your kids? In Part 2 of our family adventure in Mérida, I dive into the surprising lessons I learned about food, culture, and the beauty of discomfort. From debunking myths about Mexican food to watching my daughters connect with their heritage through tacos and mercado visits—this episode is a heartfelt reminder that food can be a powerful connector.

Join me, Marina Chaparro, pediatric dietitian and mom, as I share how saying “yes” to the unknown shaped our resilience, deepened our roots, and forever changed how we eat, live, and grow together.
