Tamales Party

What about shitload? I just used that in the movies thread instead of being redundant with shit ton.

haha, I asked the same question to her when we were talking. Apparently "shit load" is wide spread and common for Americans, "shit ton" is specific to the Mormon Corridor.

The Banana Man wraps his tamales in . . . . corn husks? Really?

My friends are Mexican, and I cannot come up with a ready supply of 140 banana leaves in the middle of a North American Winter, hijuetalporcual. Besides, Mexican tamales taste better than Central American tamales.

And you call yourself a banana fan?

BTW, you should have named this thread, All Tamales Parties.

I love homemade tamales. A laborer that works at the jobsite is Mexican and has started bringing in (12) tamales for $10, every Thursday. He brings a shit-ton (a cooler on wheels) and sells out in about 5 minutes. His wife makes them into the night so they are still warm when he sells them during the morning break. Delish.

That's not a bad price. One thing I love about tamales is they're really good reheated (if done correctly), but nothing beats a still-warm tamal.
