The first thing I learned to cook was\u2026<\/em><\/strong> miyeokguk (a Korean seaweed soup).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After a good workout, nothing beats\u2026<\/em><\/strong> a vitamina mista (a Brazilian smoothie made out of papaya, avocado, banana, and (plant-based) milk)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":24550,"template":"","uncgfrp_team_type":[],"class_list":["post-24549","uncgfrp_team","type-uncgfrp_team","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nCristina Lee - Global Food Research Program<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.globalfoodresearchprogram.org\/team\/cristina-lee\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Cristina Lee - Global Food Research Program\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Cristina is a doctoral student in the Department of Nutrition at UNC-Chapel Hill.
