Tortillas origin is Mexico.  Flour tortillas are unleavened flatbread originally made by the Aztecs.  Tortillas date back before Jesus. Ray Gonzalez, has written a poem honoring the tortilla.  Please take a moment to read “Praise the Tortilla.”

For those of you that on the Keto train with me, use lettuce or greens instead of a tortilla.  I recommend using these lettuces iceberg, romaine, butter, or kale, mustard, and greens.
