International rap superstar Cardi B might just have a love affair with South African foods and culture.

The musician posted a food dish that looked very much like mogodu, a southern African dish consisting of tripe – intestines from a cow or sheep, served as a stew with pap or dumpling.

Known for her love of food, Cardi’s fans were confused about this dish in particular and weren’t impressed by the appearance. Others thought it was a Mexican dish called menudo, a Mexican soup made of beef tripe and hominy.

Menudo. it’s a Mexican soup made of pork tripe and hominy. It’s really good and makes a hell of a hangover cure. I know it don’t look appetizing, but don’t knock it till you try it.
