Product Review: Food for Life Rice Tortillas


Tonight for dinner I had myself a Food for Life Brown Rice Tortilla. I filled it with a tuna salad.

About the Product:
Made by the same folks who make Ezekiel 4:9 sprouted grain bread. These are the first available certified Kosher, all natural, Wheat & Gluten-Free tortillas and were specifically developed to fit the needs of individuals who are looking for Wheat & Gluten Free food options. The ingredients list includes only: brown rice flour, water, tapioca flour, safflower oil, rice bran, vegetable gum, and sea salt. They are about 8" round, and there are 6 in a package.

My Verdict:
Not too shabby. They weren't a bad substitute for a regular flour tortilla.

Pros:
Nice and big for the amount of calories in each.
A good source of fibre.
Wheat, gluten, and corn-free.

Cons:
They are a bit tougher than a flour tortilla, which I guess is expected, as it is with most gluten-free products.

Well That's Pretty Cool:
Each of the tortillas are separated by a piece of parchment paper to prevent sticking.
