I know someone who goes to Mexico every year for Christmas through New Year (his wife's family is Mexican) and comes back with dozens of meat tamales. He just hands them out at work. He says her family makes hundreds.

 

I didn't know it was illegal.

Once I learned that pork tamales are made from boiling down a hog's head, picking the meat from the face, and boiling it down in the head juice, I swore off tamales altogether. 'Meat' tamales sounds even worse....

I don't care what's in it. As long as it's delicious, I would rather not know.
