What are the best corn ones out there for your average shopper? I love HEB's Butter Tortillas, but I should branch out.

Best corn you can ever have are the ones you make for your own.

Esquisita, or Mission.

Okay, if you like corn tortillas that's your right. But then you try to say some bullshit like "They’re more flavorful and have a richer texture than white-flour tortillas", which is a damnable lie. Like, unless you're comparing an amazing home-pressed corn tortilla to a taco bell flour tortilla, you're fooling yourself. Even a halfway competent flour tortilla will always blow away the best corn tortilla.

They are more flavorful but they taste like corn.

They're really good if you fry them in oil (preferably corn oil) though.

Corn tortillas only in cooked dishes like enchiladas imo. Flour tortillas for tacos, fajitias, etc. These are the immutable and inalienable truths of the world.

but maybe the truth is in the middle and your tortilla choice depends on context. IMO breakfast tacos are better with flour but my al pastor can only be served on corn, with onions, cilantro, and a tiny slice of pineapple. Anything else is sacrilege.

The funny part is that this probably only means that they are switching distributors to people that have certified halal chicken & beef.

Al Pastor tacos/quesadilas (the Mexican kind, not the Tex-Mex one) on corn tortillas and served all the way are the one true food god.

Enchiladas and burritos are best on on flour though.

I could show you around the sights.

I think the reason people dislike corn tortillas so much is because they try to eat them straight out of the package. You gotta throw them on a cast iron skillet/griddle for a few minutes and they become so much more palatable. HEB's Mitad y Mitad are the way to go though :911::respek::mexico:

Flour tortillas are to be used only for burritos and nothing else. All other foods require corn tortillas, if you disagree please report to kansas or san francisco or wherever you came from for processing

They're not asking for permission, so if it gets cancelled it will be day-of. However, I could also see them getting a lot of volunteer shooters and too few volunteer bleeders.



If anyone goes, bring a piece of cardboard that's not gun shaped but in the hopes they "shoot" you and you can explain how they just murdered an innocent bystanders and ruined two lives.
