Depends on what part of the country you are in! In the Southwest,
where corn tortillas are made from corn and calcium oxide (lime) and
water, they're generally not a problem... (Southern California,
Arizona, New Mexico and Texas). If they're imported from these areas,
that's usually okay, too. Anywhere else in the country, *READ THE
LABELS*! I got awfully sick in Philadelphia because some damned fool
made the masa for corn tortillas with about 50% wheat flour, and had
the gall to label them "corn tortillas". (And believe me, deathly ill
3,000 miles from home is no fun!)
