Rosca de Reyes

Today in Chac-Mool we ate "Rosca de Reyes". This Rosca de Reyes is a bread that all Mexican people eat on January 6th in order to celebrate Jesus' birthday. When Jesus was
born, the 3 Reyes Magos went to see him and gave him several gifts; nowadays these 3 Reyes Magos (actually the parents!) give toys to well behaved children.

This day the Rosca de Reyes is eaten with friends, in schools and family houses etc; so today at Chac Mool we ate this rosca. This bread has inside little babies of plastic that represent Jesus as a baby. If you cut your slice and you have this "mueñeco de rosca" inside, then on February 2nd you have to bring "tamales y atole" (a typical food and drink in Mexico) to celebrate.
