Are you s fan of Mutura?
Mutura is a Kenyan sausage that is sometimes also called blood sausage. It is usually made with meat and blood, flavored with spices and cooked and then stuffed into the intestines.

Mutura is common to people living in the ghetto and mostly in the outskirts of big cities and has gained popularity over the years.
The ‘celebrity’ sausage is, however, not linked to poshy places but is dominant in residential areas.
For those living in leafy suburbs of Runda, Kilimani, and the likes, here are a few ways to identify good Mutura.

If a Mutura center was to be constructed in leafy suburbs, then it can be okay to have it in the sidewalks.
