A Mexican gentleman was selling fresh hot tamales by the dozen. They smelled heavenly, and I was very hungry! His price was $18/dozen. Now I sorta wonder, is that about right? Seems steep, but they are goood!

Walking though the office area with a soft cooler/warmer around his neck.

Seems high for buying on the Street. $12 a dozen tops... usually lower.

These were chicken (wished for pork), but portions of meat seemed good.

How do you know they are chicken? Have you noticed fewer chihuahuas around?

1.50 for a good tamale? Instead of 1.00?
