Menudo
Menudo or tripe soup is a favorite in Mexico. Trip is the inner lining of beef stomach, it is very tough, and requires long cooking times. Many will tell you this delicious beefy bowl is worth it. Menudo also known as, Mexican hangover helper, is reported to be a sure cure for the morning after a long drinking night. A great hangover helper!
