About Snacks, tortilla chips, plain, white corn
Tortilla chips are the crunchy, triangular corn chips that come with salsa and guacamole and form the base of nachos. Made from corn tortillas cut and fried (or baked) until crisp, then salted, they're a fixture of Mexican-inspired snacking.
Because they start as whole-grain corn, plain tortilla chips bring a little fiber and some minerals, but frying and salting make them calorie-dense, high in fat and high in sodium — a snack food rather than a health food. Baked versions trim some of the fat.
Crunchy and satisfying, especially loaded with toppings, tortilla chips are an occasional treat — and since the dips and cheese that go with them add up too, the whole plate is worth considering, not just the chips.
