While u/ChipPeppers commented that the uncooked tortillas were purchased "because the ingredients were simple," the reaction was clear. Declaring them the "best store bought tortillas I've ever had." Even though that superlative statement is quite telling, many people agree with that sentiment.
Looking at the comments on the thread, the majority of statements were overwhelmingly positive about these uncooked, store bought tortillas. From u/FinalBlackberry saying, "I accidentally bought uncooked tortillas a while ago and I'm never going back" to u/Regular_Gatsby stating "one of my favorite finds in Costco," it is clear that many people are stocking up on this find. Although the response is overwhelmingly positive, one comment would prefer a slightly different size: It appears that these uncooked tortillas are great for tacos but not quite large enough for a burrito. Still, with so many people putting these tortillas in the skillet, it might be time to heat up a few to taste test.
