I used to work for Red Robin and I would often ask another co-worker to change the printer paper and I remember asking him many times, if someone asks you what you do for work what would you answer? And his answer was I change out the paper on the printers.
Maybe it's just me but I've never referred to Tortilla chips as simply Tortillas, I always figured there was a difference between the 2 which was important.
I was about to say that sounds a few thousand years later then they really were invented... Even the chips have been around in the form of tostadas and even the fried chips served with salsa at restaurants. Its just that the 1st mass production factory to make them was made in the 40's in los Angeles... Most likely the late 40's after ww2
They really just tried to shit all over Aztecs and the Mayans. Like bruh, tortillas are not new fam, somebody didn’t pay attentionnin history and then made a video trying to provide misconceived historical information to others. Stupid.
It was great until someone probably threw a hissyfit that the tortillas were undercooked so the chef took it back to the kitchen, cut it into tiny pieces, and fried it to a crisp.
The tortilla was invented in México. And nachos too, but originally they were baked not fried. They were invented in Piedras Negras, Coahuila by someone named Ignacio. In México we call Nacho to everyone named Ignacio. That's why everyone call that Nacho's (then Nachos).
Tortilla chips and Sabra Humus is my go to snack. What I miss are the Mexican Tortilla chips of 55 years ago at the small Mexican store where he dried the chips on top of the stove. Tamales were 30 cents and Taco was a Quarter. History of Masa is really interesting.
+JohnathanPlays also if the packet was 100% full, it'd not only be crushed, but as you're charged by the weight of the chips, you'll pay a lot more for each bag.

There are two kinds of tortilla chips. The first is the snack kind shown here, made from cornmeal and molded into triangles. The second is the kind you get in Mexican restaurants, which are simply made from corn tortillas that have been cut into triangles and fried. Those are made with nixtamalized corn which has a much nicer flavor.
I doubt this guy would put up with a silly face net every day and still find it worth having a mustache. More likely is they just did that for the camera.
I don't know how you do it in the UK, but here in the U.S. We don't put salt and vinegar on corn chips, only potato chips. Salt and Vinegar corn chips sounds very weird!
To be clear, the video is North American (Canadian to be exact), but has many narrating versions, I remember watching this particular one on TV, narrated with a N. American accent, and what was said lightly different.
KnivesUpKill you say that like bathtubs are a less ridiculous unit of measurement. whats wrong with acres for measuring pizza? all types of pizza are pretty flat except for chicago style pizzas and the like. what would you recommend for measuring that amount of pizza?
@@jaydenbrand3368 "It would not make sense" because you were looking at the wrong sentence. planetX15 was referring to this sentence: "Even if there broken there still edible."
Check the weight on packages people, you get exactly the number it is written there. The air is in there to protect the chips/crisps/whatever you want to call it. Without that air they would brake and crumble long before you get your hands on them.
The tortilla chips I buy at my local market in the US don't have any sugar or starch in them (assuming they're a plain, unflavored variety). It's just corn, oil, and salt.
Watching this while eating a healthy organic bag of tortilla chips Mmmmmm. It's so good to know how things are made, or just getting a general idea at least.
Well as a Mexican I have to clarify that tortilla chips where invented in Mexico, we have thousands of years eating maize derivated foods, like tortillas, tacos, tamales, tostadas,atoles ( which is maize dough mixed with water, brown sugar cones named piloncillo and cacao, or just chocolate, it's a beverage to be served hot or chill, By the way it was drank bt Aztec emperor before visiting his harem of 300 girls, been reported to have 60 of them pregnant at the same time) all this maize products are made of nixtamalized maize, so to be short tortilla chips are mislabeled the real name for this is TOTOPOS, in Spanish but it actually came from tlaxcaltotopocht wich means tortilla and thunder, so it's like a tortilla that makes big Noise when eaten, like a thunder, you can go even to the Wikipedia article for TOTOPOS, probably Mexican inmigrants took it to USA and then it expanded worldwide, it's like chocolate, tomato, peanut, avocado, maize, turkey and many other produce that Mexico gave to the world that are often mislabeled. By the way. Great video.
legion999 just and explanation about the true origin of food. some people could like to know. also for you información. the word in Nahuatl for avocado. is aguacatl. in spanish is aguacate. and it means testicle, So the real name for your avocado is testicle. remember it when you are eating it. hahahaha. also this have nothing to do with harem. just a spark or information. and its free. youre welcome.

Piano What kind of tortilla chips you eat in Ireland? Here in America we eat plain salted tortilla chips. Tex-Mex restaurants usually serve plain salted tortilla chips with salsa as an appetizer.

Yeah, their terminology really doesn’t make sense. So many confused kids outside the UK growing up wondering why Fish and Chips was served with fries instead.
I dont work on a factory but you need gloves or the bacteria in your hands can contaminant the chips which is bad but when frying, bacteria will die by heat or can cause typhoid fever
According to the wiki article on tortilla chips, they were not so much "invented" in LA in the 1940s, but were "first mass-produced". Big difference... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tortilla_chip
We have a Frito Lay chip factory in the city just south of us. They do tours and when you tour, you get to eat chips right off the line. They are a million times better right off the line. All they have to do is open a burger restaurant at the factory and they’d have thousands of customers wanting to come and eat burgers with fresh chips.
It is interesting to see how mass produced tortilla chips are produced. I enjoy eating tortilla chips and thus I also appreciate learning more about how these tortilla chips are manufactured from corn dough. the machines that were invented in some due part to mass produce these tortilla chips is also of interest to me. Thank you to all the engineers and other types of workers that are a part of the tortilla chip production process.
Who's watching this while eating tortilla chips?
That’ll be me 🙋🏽♀️😅
My lifelong ambition is to somehow end up in the seasoning drum while the powder is RAINING DOWN onto the tortilla chips to coat them.
i 100% support this if u figure out a way let me know
Sounds like a workplace accident
You would be shredded to pieces and ruin the chips

Tortilla chips. 1940s.
Tortillas however date back to 10,000 BCE.

+JohnathanPlays It's not all air, its nitrogen. Its to cushion the chips so they don't get crunched up during shipping. It also keeps them more fresh.
