About Corn tortilla chip
Corn tortilla chips are a popular snack originating from Mexican cuisine, traditionally made by cutting corn tortillas into triangles and frying or baking them until crispy. The primary ingredients include ground corn, oil, and salt, with some varieties incorporating lime or spices for added flavor. These chips are a versatile accompaniment to foods like salsa, guacamole, or nachos. While they provide energy from carbohydrates and contain minimal protein and fiber, they can also be high in fat and sodium depending on the preparation method. Baked versions are typically lower in fat compared to fried ones and may offer a healthier alternative. Corn tortilla chips are gluten-free, making them suitable for individuals with gluten intolerance or celiac disease. Moderation is key, as excessive consumption can contribute to high calorie and sodium intake. For a balanced diet, pair them with nutrient-rich dips or fresh vegetables.
