I don't think I would have the nerve to post store bought tortillas in a throwdown. You are all safe.
 
It should just be the rule, they're so easy to make, that if you don't want to, you should not be aloud to enter, coma coma coma coma!

But seriously....make your own tor"tilla" peoples. I know I don't get down to much in the past on smack talk but two things prevent me....the fact that greatness never needs to be boasted about......two, you guys talk so much smack I'm considering turning these into a third party perspective novel...."TD's an Egg and JayT's Hot Dog"

Whatchutalkinaboutwillis?


Whatever little village in Mexico my grandpa was hatched in, he said that the poor ate Corn Tortillas,
the middle class ate Flour Tortillas, and the rich ate Wonderbread. No lie.
He did not allow Corn tortillas in his house. I never even ate one until I was in my 20s.
He was always well stocked with Wonderbread, Pepsi, and Copenhagen.
I won't be using any of the above in the TD.
I'd like to try my hand at Corn tortillas, just to make him roll over in his grave. HA!
 
Down in the Rio Grande Valley, all my Mexican compadre's ate a lot of white bread. Tortilla's were always flour unlike Cali where they eat more traditional corn. On trips to Mexico i.e Cancun and Nuevo Puerto Vallarta, I never once saw a flour tortilla. They are more of a northern Mexico/Texas 'thang I reckon. Even up in Alaska, all Mexican's, Guatemalen's, Puerto Rican's, Dominican's, etc. all ate flour tortilla's even though corn tort's were readily available. Never thought it to be a class thing.

Hittin' tha 'sto later for some feesh.
 
"A class thing" - - - like in Houston, corn is found much more frequently than flour in Mex and Tex-Mex restaurants. But yeah, a lot of peeps, particularly close to the border, see tortillas as "border food", which often isn't complimentary. Still, I've eaten some might fine border food over the years. No accounting for tastes!
 
That's funny G. Houston has plenty of great tex-mex joints but I don't associate tex-mex so much with Houston. When I think of Houston, I think BBQ and not just any bbq, but some old dude at a broken down shack on the side of the road churnin' out smoky beef spare's and brisket. As I recall years ago when I was there visiting my sister, you couldn't swing a cat without hitting a joint like that. BBQ so good and succulent, sauce would be almost a sin and to many here in Texas, IT IS!
 
Grandpa P•••z was an illigitimate son of a prostitute, born in 1909. (I couldn't make this stuff up if I tried).
There is probably some truth to the class of peolple, who-eats-what thing, but he also had some wayyyy out beliefs
that he forced on the family like that.

I was always a rebel, and always will be. Here's to corn! Yahbastard!
