What You Should Know

Mission Flour 4.5" Street Taco tortillas arrive in a pliable plastic sleeve and are typically shelved in the bread/flatbread or Hispanic foods aisle alongside other tortillas, taco shells, chips and salsas. They are marketed as an easy route to 'authentic' street tacos — small, soft tortillas designed for quick weeknight dinners, party trays, and casual entertaining. Shoppers reach for them on grocery runs for weekday meals, game-day spreads, weekend brunch taco bars, or meal-prep sessions where portability and portion control matter. Mission positions these tortillas as broadly accessible and culturally familiar: the brand leans into Mexican-American culinary cues, social-media-friendly recipe ideas, and convenience for busy families and younger adults who want a bold, festive meal without specialty shopping. On the label you’ll find health-facing claims like "zero trans fat" and "zero cholesterol" and the word "enriched" on the flour — modest health halos that imply nutritional improvement without organic or non-GMO certification; there is no organic claim. In plain processing terms, these are a commercially produced, shelf-stable tortilla that includes refined and modified ingredients, emulsifiers and preservatives to extend freshness and texture. Sensory-wise the tortillas are soft and slightly powdery from flour dusting, pliable at room temperature and pleasantly chewy when warmed on a hot griddle; they crisp at the edges when toasted. The ritual is simple: warm, stuff with fillings, fold and serve — ideal for mini tacos, sliders, or a quick dinner when you want a reliable, familiar base.
