Hearty soup delicious but not for squeamish Menudo is a) a popular teenage boy band from the '70s and '80s; b) a hearty soup made with tripe, green chiles, hominy and seasonings; c) a hangover cure; d) all of the above. People who treat their indulgence with menudo (the soup, not the boy band) say the greasy meats help relax a liquor-filled stomach. The main ingredients of menudo are beef stomach and calves' feet. www.azcentral.com /arizonarepublic/arizonaliving/articles/1228aztraditions1228menudo.html   (247 words)

Boy band - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Beatles, The Beach Boys, and The Temptations, popular in the 1960s, may be considered boy bands, while The Monkees certainly were prefabricated, and Latin boy band Menudo was founded in 1977. Boy bands are similar in concept to girl groups. However, even though they are "bands," they rarely play instruments, and the acts are basically "vocal harmony groups." Due to this and the fact that the acts are aimed at a "teenybopper" or "tween" audience, the term has negative connotations in the rock press. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Boy_band   (1380 words)

Metroactive Dining Exotic Meats Reaching across cultures with my fork and knife, I've decided to try menudo (a common Spanish soup made with tripe, not the '80s boy band), cow foot soup, sweetbreads, liver (of the non­foie gras type) and maybe some tongue or brain. I can honestly say that this soup is a lot like chicken soup: brothy, full of vegetables and little bits of floating meat that's warm and comforting as an old quilt. The entire house is soon infused with a heady aroma as steam rises from the pot in wave after wave--a sort of El Salvadorian Bat signal to her family. www.metroactive.com /papers/sonoma/05.25.05/dining-0521.html   (1246 words)
