It's a hot, spicy Mexican soup. I wouldn't call it "slimy" (but then I
wouldn't mention menudo and marshmallows in the same paragraph, either LOL).

I guess you have to like tripe to like menudo. It contains chick peas
(garbanzo beans) which give it a nice hearty texture, at least to my way of
thinking. I've never made menudo from scratch. I buy it in cans from time
to time. Hmmm, I should put that on my shopping list.
