Answer 2

Tamal o ticuco: it's a food

A "tamal" (Spanish tamal, from Nahuatl tamalli), is a traditional Native American food consisting of steam-cooked corn dough (masa) with or without a filling. Tamales can be filled with meats, cheese (post-colonial), and sliced chillis or any preparation according to taste. The tamal is generally wrapped in a corn husk or plantain leaves before cooking, depending on the region from which they come.

Tamales tradicionales
Montuca (tamal de maíz dulce con carne)
Ticucos (tamal de maíz con frijoles) with kidney beans
Atol de maíz dulce
Atol chuco (agrio)
Chilate (atol de maíz)
