Food Fights: The Biggest Culinary Scandals Of 2011
The news couldn't be more timely with Cinco de Mayo right around the corner.
According to the Journal of Clinical Nutrition, a native Mexican diet full of soups, legumes, tomato-based sauces, meat and Mexican cheeses seems to help prevent breast cancer. Whether the foods and dished are topped with a chili or two wasn't stated, but Hispanic women believe it's the chili in Mexican food that may prevent breast cancer.
So with Cinco de Mayo coming up and resources featuring Mexican recipes, now might be a great time to add Alondigas Soup, bean-based dishes, and moles (might it be the chocolate?) to your recipe repertoire.
But don't let this be an excuse to gorge on greasy, deep-fried tortilla chips!

After reading the article, they did not account for the fact that most women who eat Mexican food are in fact Mexican or Mexican-American, who have a different genetic make-up than Caucasians or African-Americans!
