An Honest (and Delicious) Guide by SA Colonial Tortilla Factory.
🌮 More than just a side — tortillas are tradition.
They’re the foundation of countless meals around the world. But not all tortillas are created equal. With so many brands and “healthy” claims out there, how do you know which ones are truly good for you?
At SA Colonial Tortilla Factory, we believe real food should come from real ingredients. So here’s a clear, honest look at the healthiest types of tortillas — and why ours stand out.

🟡 Our Tortilla Lines
Real ingredients, real flavor, real tradition

🧐 So… why choose ours?
❗ Just because it says “blue corn” or “gluten-free” doesn’t mean it truly is!.
Many commercial tortillas use clever marketing. But if you check the label closely, you’ll often find:
Refined flours or blends
Artificial coloring instead of real ingredients
Added gums, stabilizers, or preservatives
“Low-carb” but full of synthetic fillers
They’re convenient, yes… but not always what they claim to be.
