Most Chinese sausage that I have seen are pork....would you have to get your kid's permission to buy it? And what is a Chinese tamale? I guess I can google it.
it’s pronounced “Joong” (my Cantonese Chinese is so awful - I can also point on the menu!) and the Sf place uses “Chinese tamale” in the menu description next to the Chinese characters.
My child is in school so I can keep some secrets :-)
I love chorizo and also didn’t consider that it can be stored un-cold!

I recently went shopping at a Portuguese sausage store in the Ironbound section of Newark, NJ for the first time as I needed to re-supply my linguiça supply (my Hawaiian supply chain is a little disrupted). At the urging of the owner, I also bought a few of their other selections, including a very yummy and spicy Spanish-style chorizo which was part of this morning's brunch. I also need to make a stop at the Ukrainian butcher a few blocks from us to get some ham hocks; they also have spectacular smoked kielbasa.
These sound yummy.
the sodium is of course a concern and I would have to exercise good moderation.
