Everyone who likes tortillas has their favorites. Whether it's flour or corn, you have the brand that you (or your parents) always buy. Some people live by a certain brand, yet the fortunate are able to buy freshly made ones straight out of Mexicali.

In this topic, we share our favorite store bought tortilla brands.

Yeah, those probably are the best corn tortilla's you can buy in this region.

The best flour tortilla's have to be, without a doubt, "La Fiesta."

If you're from San Diego, you probably like "Mission" brand. Puke

Mission tortillas suck major ass. I get the ones that are the Whole Foods brand. They are pretty good. Actually, it's kinda hard getting good tortillas here. The best place to buy them is a neighbhorhood called the Mission. Not to be confused with the nasty brand version.

I also like La Fiesta. The thing is once you open the bag you gotta eat them quick.

The only brand that is better are these raw tortillas sold at Costco. Good shit.

I don't know about that, they taste greasy when they're cold.

Which by the way, is the reason they are good. I think they're one of the last tortillas made with lard. None of that healthy vegetable oil.

I'm not sure about them being greasy. They seem kind of powdery.
I remember in grade school they use to serve us Fiesta tortilla raw with chili.
Looking back now that seems kind of fucked up.

I've never tried "Sofia's", but I'll be looking out for it next time I go shopping.

I remember when I was a kid "La Fiesta" was the only brand my parents would buy; I haven't had them in years. Now, I like "Guerrero", but I might have to buy a package of "La Fiesta" for old time's sake.
