Corn tortillas are a fundamental element of Mexican cuisine made from masa harina (corn flour) and water. They have been a staple food in Mesoamerican cultures for thousands of years, dating back to the time of the Aztecs and Mayans. The preparation process involves nixtamalization, where dried corn kernels are soaked and cooked in an alkaline solution, usually limewater. This process enhances the nutritional value of the corn, making essential nutrients like niacin more bioavailable, and also improves the flavor and texture of the tortillas.

Totopos are a traditional Mexican snack that closely resembles tortilla chips. While totopos are similar to tortilla chips, there are subtle differences. Tortilla chips are typically made from yellow corn tortillas and are often mass-produced for commercial distribution. In contrast, totopos are usually made from white or blue corn and have a slightly sweeter flavor. They are often handmade and have a thicker, more robust texture compared to the lighter, crispier tortilla chips found in supermarkets
