I was at a buffet recently and spied something that looked like barbecue beef and beans mixed together and put a scoop on my plate. When I got back to the table I ate a few bites. Something wasn't right, as the messages my palate was sending my brain didn't jive with my earlier perception. I looked closer. Those weren't beans, but hominy. Uh-oh. I just ate something that I told myself I never wanted to try. It was menudo, and those rubbery bits were not shredded barbecue beef at all, but honeycomb tripe.
That's the first time I had ever seen this [censored] on the buffet, and is another subtle reminder of what is going on in this country. Menudo is every bit as bad as it sounds.
Only a spanish-speaking mongrel would eat that dish.

Now wait a second. I don't eat menudo either, but the best places to get a taco or a burrito are those that have tripe and tongue as options. "Un burrito con asada, frijoles y aguacate. No cilantro, por favor."
Your racism and xenophobia is coming between you and excellent burritos.
