I only had menudo once, at a Mexican breakfast buffet near Denver.
For some reason, we were talking about tripe and I was saying how my
friend's mother used to cook it every Tuesday and it took until Friday
to get rid of the smell. Her husband pointed out that I was eating it in
the Menudo, and I pointed out that I had been spitting out all the
unchewable bits in it.I have to say that the Menudo was delicious.
