Poor Tamales

This is a bit odd, but I woke up this morning thinking about those poor confiscated and destroyed tamales at LAX.  I mean really?  What did those poor innocent tamales do that was so wrong?

And how sad is it that TSA can catch a suitcase full of 'illegal' tamales but not when people carry knives and loaded weapons through security?

Alas..

I should go out for tamales somewhere in their honor.  Yummy tamales.
