Synopsis "La Cuchara Sabrosa del Profesor Ziper (in Spanish)"

El mundo puede dar muchas sorpresas, una de las más asombrosas ocurrió el día en que Gonzo Luque, baterista del grupo de rock Nube Líquida, se puso a dieta. El corpulento músico decide dejar su delicioso tocino y su club sándwich triple por la chica que le hace sentir redobles en el corazón: Cindy Buendía. Pero para alguien que desprecia las ensaladas y sólo come frutas si están escondidas bajo una montaña de helado, no será sencillo lograr su objetivo, así que animado por su amigo Pablo Coyote acude al profesor Zíper para que le ayude a crear un invento que lo haga soportar la comida sana. ¿Podrá el profesor Zíper ayudar a su viejo amigo?
