Have you ever had a really really good Peruvian tamale from the tamale lady with some bread and pickled onions? I had that when I was a little kid in Peru and it’s hard to repeat that experience again.

Yeah, I'm white as the proverbial driven snow, but this pretty much handles the situation. Just the sheer amount of variables in the burrito flavor profile are hard to counter.

There might be a "purity" or "simplicity" argument to be had here re: tamales (which can be really good in my experience, by the way, as a lifelong Texas resident), which seems to be what Idk is getting at (haven't had Peruvian style), but I haven't had a tamale really knock my socks off in the way some burritos have.

dusty, maybe you can change our minds. I don't know that the tamale of our collective consciousness is going to do it.

[straight]

argentine empanadas boludo

[Mesteezo]

Camarones a la diabla is the best Mexican dish.

[Monkey_Mcpott]

Pupusas

[Nosferatu]

What you want is the least amount of container to maximum filling ratio. A taco or burrito wins there every time. Unless you just really like masa…

[matty_c]

Yeah I like tacos too, I like the crunch

Has anyone ever deep fried a tamale how would that go?


Edit I gotta google all these dishes, I legit only know about taco, burrito, quesadilla and huevos rancheros oh yeah and nachos but that’s like not even Mexican food anymore everyone makes nachos haha

[Trashcon]

Pupusas

my favorite by far

[GauchoAmigo]

Hard shell tacos are a big no-no amigo, but you're in Australia so I guess you get a pass

[S.]

I love them both, so I will have the Colombian tamal with hot chocolate for breakfast and I will have the Mexican beef burrito for lunch!

[Uncle Jeffrey]

Pupusas

Can I just say that watching your trucks jiggle in your signature is vaguely sensual

[TheBoognish]

I wish I had access to all this glorious food, but alas, we don’t have much here in Quebec City.

That being said, this thread made me so fucking hungry.

I've been to places that deep fry them fresh and they're solid, but the grocery store taco night kit is no good.

Someone already said it, too much masa for tamales to compete with burritos.

Now all I can think about is some sort of weird poutine burrito.

[rawr1922]

Most whack topic ever... Burritos always supreme

[Gene_Harrogate]

Tamales are good, but too filling. Give me a good sizzling plate of fajitas any day.

[Fhk]

Empanadas you fool.

[DaleSr]

Burritos are the way the truth and the life. And @mattyc  if you ever do make it out to the state and California specifically, try our Mexican food. It's the best in the country

[BoardintheWorld]

Birria tacos dipped in consomme. There's also a food truck in my town that does tamales this way but I've yet to track them down and try it.

[rawr1922]

I do miss living in San Francisco and buying fresh tamales off the street outside of Safeway
