Tortillas

If you're like me and love your burritos/wraps then here is healthy tortilla. My local grocer had them in and I decided to try them out. They taste pretty good, are high in fiber (12g) and protein (8g), and contain no trans or saturated fats.

Thanks mate, will definatly look into them!!

Damn I wish we got that here in South Africa, I would eat the shit outa those tortillas!!

I've been having that for a while. Great stuff.

We don't have it in Denmark.. - All we got is tortillas with lots of fat, lots of wheat and all white bread, lol.. That won't do..

oh wow, anyone have any idea if there are any lo cal tortilla brands in the UK?

Hey Danny, it looks like we are going to have to make our own tortillas, sounds like fun. If I come across any killer recipes I'll let you know.

Sounds good mate, I'll do the same.. I'll have my Mrs. or mother-in-law looking for some..

for uk corn tortillas in tesco they sell old el pasocorn tortillas which are nice. They arnt by the other tortillas they are in the old el pso section. Asda dont sell them I dont think as I couldnt find any.

Interesting fact: mexico last year in Feb there was riots due to the price of corn tortillas going up by 300%. The average mexican spend 1/3rd of their annual wage on tortillas. The price rise was due to american buying all the corn for eco fuel LOL.

Prices for pasta and veg oils went up in Europe because of the higher demand for bio mass. Not LOL

I just find it funny that american by trying to become greenier causes problems in other countries by going ott and buying over the top amounts of crops.

They never seem to get the right balance

Ethanol derived from corn isn't about being green, it's about subsidizing farmers. It's YAPP (yet anther poor policy) from the fool in charge. The problem is corn isn't rich enough in sugars like cane. Processing it requires more energy that it produces. (wiki is a little inconsistent I maybe out of date with this info, confusion is even better for the administration)

There's nothing good to be said about the current US administration. How Bush got elected twice is beyond me. Look for more of the same if McCain gets elected - war mongering and general ignorance.

It would be great if we can avoid political discussion here.

Agreed. Please guys, lets try and keep the political discussion off this board. This is one reason why people fall out and we have a great communtiy going on here which we do not need to ruin through dissagreements and debates.

Hope you all agree.

I agree 100% with Sean! Let the politicians worry about all those politics, our job is get that ultimate shredded 6pack, so focus on that chaps.
