Yellow and Blue Corn Tortilla Chips
What it is
This is a bag of tortilla chips made from a blend of yellow and blue corn. The corn is typically ground into masa, then formed into thin rounds and fried until crisp. The distinct colors come from the natural pigments in the different varieties of corn used. This combination offers a visually appealing snack with a classic corn chip flavor profile.
