    Had christmas dinner at the construction company i worked at when i was 19, did the same thing and reeeaaallly tried to eat the husk, no one said a thing but when i looked at the guy who brought them to ask about it he busted out laughing along with most others.

    It indeed was the best tamale i ever had once i unwrapped it. I think the shame added extra flavor.

      “The shame” I imagine you just walking around sulking the rest of the day, shoulders hunched over and trying to avoid your coworkers for fear of being made fun of.

        They will never let him live it down ever.

        Hey look it’s Husk Boy. Whatcha doing Husk Boy? How’d that tamale taste (6 years ago)?
