Tamale papers

[bobbuck]

Where in Nashville or Knoxville area can you buy tamale papers? I would like to make some down in the islands, but cant find them here. I am coming to Tn during Thanksgiving and thought I would pick some up.

Corn husks? Or the delta style with wax paper?

I would prefer to not use corn husks. The ones my people from E Tn used looked similar to corn husks(textured) but were a paper maybe parchment. Everybody is dead that used to make them in my family so not sure where to get them.

Occasionally they are available at Food City or similar stores in Knoxville area.
