I had to try a Tortada for myself today, so I picked the Salsa Roja version.
I couldn’t wait to sink my teeth in, so I took a bite of it as soon as I opened the package, but I immediately regretted that and decided to eat my Taco Supreme in its entirety first.
Taco gone and Tortada still there, I added some hot sauce and proceeded to eat what I knew I couldn’t like. First of all, I am funny about chicken. It has to really look like chicken and taste like chicken. The chicken in this Tortada was more like a mixture of Spam and wheat gluten. It barely looked like chicken; instead, had a grill mark here and there (probably from a sharpie) and noticeable swiss-cheese like holes. The taste? Oh, yuck. Was that a Taco Bell or a Nutri-system meal I just ate?
Okay, so the only other thing I saw or tasted on the Tortada was the “Salsa Roja.” What did I think about it? I love it…when it is called “Fresco salsa.” They really do have all kinds of names for this stuff, don’t they? But seriously, I do love their pico style salsa and I’m glad it was on my Tortada.
