... after all is YOUR keyboard and monitor, but I don´t want to have misunderstandings due to your inability to read the forum (and maybe your job's texts) after this.
I will try to put pictures now and then of mexican food, for those of you who haven´t tried this "exotic" dishes.
As per my lawyer faint suggestion, I will try to add something in the picture for you to have an idea of the size in case of fruit or "strange" staples.
First one: Tamales (singular is Tamal, not tamale).
Mexico has a strong tie with maize, it is used in all imaginable forms, from tortilla, to corn soup (pozole), to sopes and gorditas, passing through quesadillas, tlacoyos, even hot drinks (Atole), colds drinks (tejate, pozol) and the tamal.
The tamal is a dough made of maize paste (nixtamal) beaten for long time with some lard and water. You take some dry corn shucks (I had to look for the translated name on this. hehe) and smear the dough on them generously and in the middle put something you like: chicken (green, red or mole salsa), pork, queso con rajas, even pineapple or other sweet (or make the dough sweet completely) and believe it or not, you can have one special flavor of tamal: Elote (corn), you wrap the resulting dough with the corn shucks and tie them with a small string taken also from the shucks. Then steam boil it for several hours and voila, you got tamales.
You should eat them hot.
I found an interesting site devoted to the Tamal in English for your pleasure:
