I guess it must be chicken's breast instead. Hi, why is there children’s breast in the materials of the Tamales recipe ? I guess it must be chicken’s breast instead.

However, tamales, which is clearly exotic and more tropical and "indio", was in fact most likely brought over to the Philippines by the Mexicans, or even the Spaniards who were from Mexico (New Spain). This was a result of the huge and important Manila-Acapulco galleon trade. It was not just something that was between two countries/colonies, but it was a big part of world history and trade as well. Food is not just for eating but it also reveals what makes up our history and culture as well as the paths taken. Please don't leave out elements and parts of what makes up the rich and unique history and culture that the Philippines has. Hello,
