/Sounds like "mbeh" + "YOO" (as in "you")/

Meaning

A thin, crispy snack cake from Paraguay made with manioc starch, fresh cheese, and fat, cooked in a pan. Mbeyú is a staple breakfast and afternoon snack, found everywhere from rural homes to city kitchens. Simple, savory, and seriously addictive.

Examples

Nothing beats a freshly made mbeyú with a cup of coffee.

Regional synonyms

Andalusian Spanish term for a friend or buddy, a contraction of "chiquillo." Works as a casual address between friends and as a filler word to add emphasis to a sentence.
