Agree with Crystal that skillets are the best for these. If you've got less time they're also very tasty when put into a toastie maker with cheddar inside them - quick and very yum. Awesome!

You can put to put anything and everything on and in them. Lightly heated in a flat cast iron skillet softens them and even if you eat them cold with spicy red pepper hummus nut butters, you name it, it works. The complaint that they break and the contents fall all over the floor is interesting and perhaps eating over the table would help, with a plate underneath, so the contents can be retrieved and enjoyed, even if might it means using a fork and eating the tortillas in a piece with those contents. I would love to find the recipe and method for making these myself, since my only Trader Joe's is over 45 miles from my residence. Anyone, out there knows how, please add the information.

Feeling so desperate for some type of bread, namely a tortilla, I decided to give them another try thinking I could find a way to do something to them even though the taste was disgusting. I am glad I did because the second batch was fine for me and did not have that aftertaste. I think I had a had batch the first time as these tortilla's don't seem to have any kind of shelf life other than a few days. I keep out a few at a time and then freeze the rest. Anyway, good luck. I used food for life but have not tried Trader Joe's. Kim Hi Patti, I had to laugh when I read about the horrible aftertaste because the same thing happened to me.

Store them in the refrigerator to prevent them from molding quickly. When ready to use wet tortilla and cook in frying pan sprayed with olive oil this will keep them from cracking.

I have had the pleasure of eating there when I travel and I agree with "mim". They did used to be better but are still worth the effort to search one out.

But like someone commented above, I find a lot of their fresh products tend to start molding within a few days. I guess I could eat the stuff faster, but I am trying to LOSE weight, not GAIN weigh. :) Any suggestions on making their stuff last a little longer?

My guess is at least 40-50% tapioca...or more. Trader Joe’s is cheating on these “brown rice” tortillas…

And it split right down the side and dumped a bunch of my yummy contents all over the floor. I was not pleased. I will try the quesadilla style next time. This is my second time buying them, the first time I didn't eat any- because they were covered in mold two days after I brought them home! @pattie: I think you may have gotten a bad batch because I didn't notice an aftertaste like that at all.
