This is a Spanish-language comic addressing nutrition. In this story, Miguel and Teresa are advised by their doctor, for the health of themselves and their family, to begin eating meals low in fat. He tells them that meals low in fat can prevent many illnesses, like cancer. The doctor continues, saying that although many Hispanics eat healthy foods, like rice, beans and other vegetables and fruit, they typically cook with too much fat, like butter or oil, eat many fried foods, and eat too much meat. Miguel and Teresa take the doctor's advice, and begin making meals with less fat right away. The story follows them to the grocery store, where they purchase healthy foods, and discuss how they will cook these foods using less grease. It shows them and their family enjoying healthy foods at dinner. The two return to the doctor and report on the success of their meal. The doctor then reminds the readers that they too can eat healthy and prevent illnesses and reminds them to use the oven instead of frying, limit the use of oils, use low-fat cream, and eat smaller portions.
