Tamales

One of our main dish in Mexico are Tamales, but they are different even in the country. You can find a different flavor between tamales from Sonora and tamales from another state of Mexico.
Tamales have become a very common dish in the United States especially in the south thanks to the cultural exchange with Mexico. The traditional word in America is tamale which comes from the Mexican word tamal (result of taking away the s from the plural tamales and making it singular). However, every time is more common to say tamal especially in communities with lots of Hispanic speakers. The tamale has been adapted to the American culture and different varieties have been created to stuff the tamale.

Till this day they are exported to Arizona and are planning to take them to Nevada and California.
