I saw someone on Ebay selling these tortillas. They said two is a serving (about 6" tortillas) and the carb count is around 2.5 for two, 1.25 for one. This sounds too good to be true. Has anybody tried them? I know La Tortilla are not good fried into chips (at least I didnt think so) I hate paying so much in shipping over the net. Anybody know where I can get tortillas locally in NC. I fly the President and CEO of Harris Teeter in the corporate jet, so I should just ask them if they would start carrying it. Look forward to the replies.
PS how do I insert my own avtar. I have tried and tried.
PSS GO Panthers!!!!

The only thing I could find about it was this article:
Atzlan Tortillas
The speak of flour tortillas which are high in carbs, in my experience.

I have never seen Aztlan tortillas in North Carolina. But yes tell your boss to start carrying low carb stuff in Harris Teeters. I wrote them an email a while back but never heard back. Yes GO PANTHERS!!!

I pulled these stats for these tortillas off the bulletin board at Lowcarber.org

Calories: 120 Fat: 1.5g Sat fat 0g Cholesterol: 0mg Sodium:
45mg Total Carb: 2.5g dietary fiber: 3g sugars: 0g Protein: 2g

It looks like they misplaced the decimal point and the 2.5 total carb should be 25. I did the hidden carb calculation in my head and it works out to 121.5 carbs if you use 25 carbs. so that must be it.
