Mercado de Jamaica<\/strong><\/p>\n

There is a section dedicated to pi\u00f1atas, most made with cardboard and covered in crepe paper, although more traditional ones with a clay pot in the center can still be found. Designs range from traditional stars to those based on recent figures from popular movies and television shows. The busiest time of year for this section of the market is December, before Christmas, when a tradition called “Las Posadas” often involves the breaking of one or more pi\u00f1atas. While traditional to that season, the breaking of pi\u00f1atas is no longer confined to December and can be found at various types of celebrations year round, which helps to support this section\u2019s permanent presence.<\/p>\n

Maize<\/strong><\/p>\n

Maize, known in some English-speaking countries as corn, is a large grain plant domesticated by indigenous peoples in Mesoamerica in prehistoric times. The leafy stalk produces ears which contain the grain, which are seeds called kernels. Maize kernels are often used in cooking as a starch. The six major types of maize are dent, flint, pod, popcorn, flour, and sweet.<\/p>\n
