Congrats for the persisstence of this research group that can make a positive contribution to the health of millions of people --a heck of a lot better that what fast foods are doing to Americans (and the rest of the world).

Don't sell the tortilla diet too short. Our guide in Mexico city told us that diabetes is on the rise in that country since so many younger people are eating American fast food.

I love tortillas and use them alot in subsitution of bread. Is there any way that we can buy them in the states - or the flour?

Hey! Their football team is a joke but at least they can make food really well right?

I love U fans so insecure they are bashing on a 10-2 top 20 football team. It shows how great BYU is, a down year is 10-2 after the regular season AMAZING!

Why are we discussing football teams on a blog about Tortillas?

Thanks BYU for making a good Tortilla even better. And that's coming from a Utah fan.

I guess this gives even more reasons to throw tortillas after BYU scores touchdowns in football.

Flying Touchdown Tortillas!
