[quote=Anonymous]I’m from Arizona so I get you, OP.
I haven’t had the ones from cieko Tojo but they are a great restaurant so I’d guess those are good.
The Tucson Tamale Co. Has started selling tamales in the freezer section at some local groceries—I’ve seen them at Harris teeter and giant.  This is a company that has been operating in Tucson for about 25 years and the tamales are still made in Tucson (and sold fresh at their store there.). I’ve bought them and they are pretty good.  I microwave them in a wet towel — you need to watch the temp and not overcook them.  
They don’t have as many flavors as you can get in Tucson though.
You can also order online from El Charro in Tucson — 100 year old restaurant.  It’s not cheap but they are good.  I did that one year when I couldn’t make it home during the pandemic.  They also come frozen.  If they have their sweet cinnamon pumpkin ones, those are the bomb for dessert with chocolate syrup.  But the traditional flavors are great too.
