    In my ignorance and due to the lack of credible Mexican food down here, I have never had a tamale ... must rectify the situation!

    I was trying to guess what the top right picture was of! I've never had a tamale either. I think I need to experiment!

    Love the colours and light. Never had a tamale either but then tortillas until recently were sold in the exotic imported/world food section of most supermarkets :)

    I had my first tamale in May in Oregon at the Farmer's Market, and became a great fan. We went back the next week at lunchtime so I could have another one. We have one great Mexican restaurant near here, and their tamales are very good, but not as good as the ones I had in Ashland.

    I've never had a tamale or a corn dog. I'm not entirely what the latter is, although I hear them mentioned occasionally on US shows. Great photos x
