El Milagro tortilla chips
I haven't tried any new salsas lately, but Whole Foods is opening up here soon. Something to look forward to. I haven't mentioned any tortilla chip brands I prefer on the Salsa Review. My favorites, of course, are the piping hot chips that are served at various Mexican restaurants. The most authetic chips I've found here in Birmingham that are served packaged are El Milagro Mexican Kitchen Style tortilla chips. You can get a 16 oz bag of them for a very economical $2.50 at Target (in the produce section). I've also found them at Central Market in Dallas, Texas. They are thin and crispy and unsalted. Salt can make chips tasty, but can also detract from the flavor of the salsa you are eating. I like how thin these chips are; they are much thinner than the standard tortilla chip you would find in the snack aisle, such as Tostitos. Unfortunately, I haven't found a lot of restaurant-style chips in the grocery stores to discuss. The El Milagro chip is the closest thing I've found. (And it's manufactured in Austin, Texas.)
