Anything "Bimbos" or those strawberry cookies where the strawberries were brown, although lately they seem redder.

Flour tortillas in Mexico. Have never understood why it is, NOB, that flour tortillas are so thick and doughy. Perhaps for shelf life. Nevertheless,
anything in one of those paper-thin flour tortillas works for me.

That's like saying, "Anything General Mills." Bimbo Bakery, and associates is probably as large as Nestles.

Twenty years ago down here, you couldn't buy factory made flour tortillas. It was a cottage industry and they would be sold by people wandering the
parking lots of the grocery stores.

They are kind of like an empaņada, but the crust is thinner and crunchier, and kind of rolled up like a big taquito--hence the name, I would imagine.
I'll see if I can come up with an image. I think I first had one from the bakery across the street (and up about 1/2 a block?) from the Rosarito
Beach Hotel.
To be honest, I THINK that's what they were called, but I might be wrong.
