This is what a three dollar bag looks like...
This is what the product looks like after baking for about half an hour...
This is my first experience with tamales in their proper form. In New England we use the word to describe the green matter found inside a lobster during consumption. New Englanders use odd words for "shit",which is pretty much what that green matter is. I had never eaten anything rapped in corn husk,so it was niced to know in some parts of the it is actually put to good use. I had the hardest time eating the husky,outer layer,but the creamy cormeal found inside made up for it. It's unfortunate all I had to dress my food with was "Texas Pete's",which I have had for over a year since I prefer something with flavor. Next time I'll be sure to spread salsa and/or cheeseover them. I should also try the frying method of cooking. It would probably make the husk easier to chew.
Not bad for my first time up to bat. Hopefully next time it's a homerun and not just 1st or second base.

Um, Steve...don't eat the husk. It's just there to provide a wrapper of sorts, a way to hold it together while it cooks...But have it your way!
I didn't really eat much of it. But I didn't find that out until today. I'll know better next time.
You don't eat the husk baby.
Just like corn on the cob.
They do look good for a 3 dollar bag.
I do applaud you for trying out new foods.
Frying sounds delicious, also try throwing them on the grill (charcoal), after you thawed them out.
That will get them crunchy on the outside.
Don't char them to much that will dry them out.
