When you're a child and handed food by an adult and they say, "hey try this" and do not inform you that the wrapper that looks like food is not actually edible or supposed to be eaten, this is what happens.

Nobody even told me I was supposed to remove the corn husk after I said it was gross! I didn't find out until years later when someone gave me an unhusked tamale and I didn't know what it was!

Yeah, what one person knows another does not! I was lucky with the tamales. I was told when handed them.

I still tried to eat the wrapper cause the tamales were delicious and I wanted more delicious though...
