Cultural exchanges


The presence of the million British people who now live in Spain is being reflected in the shelves of Spanish supermarkets.

Spanish gourmets love tripe, or callos, and in one supermarket this can be found next to a British favourite, macaroni cheese. Whether tripe, which is the lining of a cow´s stomach, and macaroni cheese can be served together on the same plate as the ultimate cultural fusion dish remains to be discovered.
