WHAT MAKES A GOOD TORTILLA?

Look at the ingredients list and choose a tortilla with whole-wheat flour or sprouted whole wheat as one of the first ingredients (not wheat flour or enriched wheat flour). Scan the rest of the ingredients and make sure they don’t include partially hydrogenated oil of any kind. Some of our favorite products are Ezekiel 4:9 Sprouted Whole Grain Tortillas, Flatout whole-grain flatbreads, and Alvarado St. Bakery sprouted-wheat tortillas. La Tortilla Factory white whole-wheat SoftWraps are also a good choice.

Sprouted-grain tortillas may be found in the freezer section; the others are usually shelved in a tortillasection or Latin foods aisle.
