Tortilla chips have a rich history rooted in Mexican cuisine. They are believed to have originated in the 1940s when a clever entrepreneur named Rebecca Webb Carranza began frying leftover tortillas at her family's tortilla factory in Los Angeles. This innovative approach not only utilized surplus tortillas but also created a new snack that would soon become a favorite across the United States. Initially enjoyed as an accompaniment to salsa and guacamole, tortilla chips have since evolved into a beloved snack enjoyed on their own or as part of elaborate dishes like nachos.
