Deck the tables with tamales

Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la

‘Tis the season to be eating giving

Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la

All the seasonal flavors are festive

Fa-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la

Enter now for a chance to win

Fa-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la

With festive music comes the opportunity to win two, yes two, boxes of tamales from Tucson Tamale Company this season. If you win, the first “Box of Christmas” will be delivered straight to your door and the second, to a person of your choosing anywhere in the US.

What’s in a Box of Christmas?

Each box contains four double packs of Red Chile Beef tamales and four double packs of Green Chile Cheese. That’s 16 parcels of festive goodness.

With so many mouths to feed this season, the edible gift is certainly enough to go around.
