I got some spicy cheese tamales tonight, I really want to like them but that wet sand texture is so loving gross. It's like cous cous. I loving hate cous cous. People who eat it must be freaks.

Ughhhh why can't I just like tamales?

It depends on the masa they use to make the tamales. Some arent as finely ground as others. Cous cous is just pasta.

Every tamale you've eaten is garbage.

Doesn't solve your problem but that's what it is.

I mean, some people just don’t like tamales (my stupid husband) but tamales aren’t supposed to have the same consistency as couscous, so those sound like bad tamales.

On the third hand, couscous is delicious so :shrug:

Seconded.

If the masa texture is right you can season and fill them from flyover state boiled hamburger and potato bland, volcanic diarrhea hot and spicy, or my liver just exploded sugary.

Not finding a tamale you don't like is like hating all pizzas or driving a PT Cruiser, you just want to be miserable and hate being alive.

That reminds me a story my mom told me about when she was a kid. She went to a friend's house and had dinner. They served tail-on shrimp, she had never eaten shrimp before. At the end of the meal everyone else had a pile of shrimp tails on their plate, but hers was empty because nobody told her you don't eat the entire shrimp. Imagine being that embarrassed, yikes. On top of the faux pas, you have shown that you are poor enough to have never seen shrimp as a food in your whole life.

Don't eat the shrimp tails, don't eat the tamale husks, don't drink the bong water. This public service announcement brought to you by SomethingAwful.

Which in turn reminds me of a couple of anecdotes that UK comedian Frank Skinner tells:

He grew up in 1960s Britain in a poor, working class household. When he got his first middle-class, relatively posh, girlfriend, her family invited him around for tea/dinner. They'd made a spaghetti bolognese (super-exotic for the UK at the time as I'm sure you can imagine :eyepop: ) and he got the dried bay leaf in his portion. Not knowing any better, or what the hell it was, he dutifully ate it to many raised eyebrows. He describes it as "like eating a small medieval shield...".

Around the same time they'd all gone out to some kind of formal function and the starter was gazpacho soup. No prizes for guessing who meekly asked to have his sent back because it was cold. He gives full props to the caterers as they didn't say a word AND sent it back piping hot.

I have a friend who once ate whole edamame with the pod because he thought it was green beans.

When we explained him how to eat the soja beans he insisted eating the whole pod wasn't that bad

edamame has a near plastic-like layer inside them though. :|

My parents did the same thing when they went to Japan, and didn't bring it up until I ordered some edamame pods at a restaurant a while later when they were back home because they thought I'd hate them.

I can't remember if it's a stand-up bit or someone just retelling via post, but anyone else remember the dude who would collect up everyone else's empty pods and eat them? :gonk:

People are always telling me "don't eat this, don't eat that." Don't eat the lime leaf, don't eat the chunk of raw ginger, don't eat the whole birdseye chilies, don't eat the bay leaf soaked in juices. gently caress yourself, I'm eating it ALL
