Read an excerpt from the article, “Tamales: Food of the Gods.” As you read, think about why the writer discusses the history of tamales in a how-to article.

It’s usually savory―but sometimes sweet. It may be meat-filled, or it may be vegetarian. To the ancient Aztecs, it was the food of the gods. The tasty, versatile tamale is one of Latin America’s oldest and greatest gifts to food lovers.

People in Central America and what is now Mexico made tamales as early as 7000 B.C. from wild corn called teocintle. The Mayans and Aztecs served them at feasts and festivals and as part of religious rituals, offering tamales to their gods. They also valued the tamale, with its corn-husk wrapping, as a highly portable food for long journeys.

What is the main point of these two paragraphs?

A.to explain how to make tamales today

B.to discuss why tamales are still made today

C.to show the interesting history of tamales

D.to discuss how tamales were made in the past
