Phileas Fogg Tortillas Sour Cream with Mild Mexican Chilli Flavour (Sainsbury’s)


After the fantastic Phileas Fogg Poppadoms with Indian Red Chilli, I have been really looking forward to trying the Tortillas that they have in the same range.
I decided to tuck into them as an accompaniment to a Chilli Con Carnie, and they went rather nicely together! They have a good crunch, and good authentic base flavour. There is a nice hint of sour cream on the chips, but I felt the chilli flavour wasn’t strong enough. I know that I was eating them with a Chilli sauce which may affect the taste buds, so I deliberately saved a few to have after my taste buds had recovered. I conclude that they contained only the vaguest hint of chilli, they are labelled as ‘mild’ chilli, but to be honest I could barely taste it. I felt that they were good, but not as outstanding as the Poppadoms.
