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).

The Latina Anti-Diet: Why you should love your cultural foods! | EP 12

Hello, my friends! I’m Marina, and I’m so excited to bring you this special episode of Messy Bites. Today, I’m with my dear friend and fellow dietitian, Dalina Soto, author of the incredible book “The Latina Anti-Diet.” In honor of Hispanic Heritage Month, we are breaking down diet culture myths that have hurt our community for years. Have you been told that white rice is bad? Or that you need to switch to brown rice to be "healthy"? Get ready for a real, no-holds-barred conversation about how diet culture has demonized our traditional foods and what we can do to raise kids who are proud of their bodies and their culture.


In this episode, you’ll discover:

  • Why Dalina wrote The Latina Anti-Diet
  • Diet culture’s impact on the Latinx community
  • Acculturation and the pressure to be thin
  • Advice for Latinx dietitians
  • Why the Mediterranean diet isn’t the gold standard
  • Parenting differently for confident kids
  • Is white rice healthy?
  • Fun Rapid Fire Q&A with Dalina
