Menudo is a staple in our household! Not the boy band but the food. If you don't know what it is it's a soup made with beef stomach in a broth that's red chile based and has hominy. You can garish menudo with oregano and onion but if you're like me, some good ol' lime juice will do. My mom recently made some and my sister's usual duty is to make sure she gets the bread. Yes, that's right, bread. In my house we eat menudo with a bolillo (French bread). Now, I clarify because recently it's been brought to my attention that not everyone eats menudo with bread! My cousin, who lives in Austin but grew up in El Paso, posted this on Facebook the other day and I was shooketh!

People eat menudo with TORTILLAS?! What?! I have never heard of such a monstrosity! Tortillas have never even crossed my mind when eating menudo. Of course, this post started a riot on my cousin's Facebook page and I was shocked that some people thought bread with menudo is gross!

I even asked Lisa, who has NEVER had menudo what it should be eaten with it, and she said "bread." Even "California Love" Lisa knows that menudo should be eaten with bread. I know that in places in Mexico, food is eaten entirely different that what I may know, but still, tortillas for menudo just sounds like it would not be good. Take our poll and let us know what you eat with your menudo!
