I have been wanting to buy some corn tortillas but haven't been able to find them at my local market.Are they usually found at regular supermarkets or do you get them at health food stores,Whole Foods,etc?

I usually find them at my normal grocery. However, usually the corn tortillas are usually in a refridgerated case unlike the flour ones which are frequently found on shelf in the bread or mexican sections.

I don't know where you are, but here in Southern California they're kind hard to miss! :lol:

I get mine at Ralphs, which is owned by Kroger, and they are located prominently on an endcap.

I have heard, however, that in some parts of the country, decent Mexican food is basically not available :( so you might have to keep searching.

Try asking the manager at your local market.

Also, if there is a Hispanic neighborhood in your area, check there.

If you're feeling adventurous, buy a tortilla press and a bag of masa and make your own!

Caution: it's a lot of work! :rolleyes:

I Southern California every regular grocery store carries corn tortillas. I buy Mission Tortillas. I find them in any regular grocery store. I have also seen them in Walmart. Below is the website for Mission Foods. You may want to contact them to see if any of your local store carry them.

I eat Old El Paso tortillias with no problem and I can get them at the local grocery store.

I get mine at either walmart or our local store.

Sometimes they are by the mexican foods and sometimes they are buy the bread. Depends on the store.

You might try asking next time you're at the store - they're often on an aisle end in the stores I've been at in a number of states.

I tried a few brands of corn tortiallas and i found that the brand Azteca tastes the most like flour tortillas, they are in the refrigerated section of the grocery store, I buy mine at Meijers.

I just wish they made a bigger corn tortilla like the flour ones, the corn ones are small.

Thanks everyone! I checked my local Shaws and found the Mission brand hiding behind their flour tortillas. You've never seen anyone so excited to find tortillas!

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.
