Nacho Cheese Tortilla Chips

Nacho Cheese Tortilla Chips

Everyday

Nacho cheese tortilla chips are a seasoned snack made from corn tortillas that are fried or baked and coated with a cheese-flavored seasoning blend. This commercially produced snack contains elevated sodium and saturated fat levels from both the cooking oil and processed cheese flavoring, which often includes additives like monosodium glutamate (MSG) or artificial colors. While sharing the base ingredients of traditional tortilla chips, their bold, tangy flavor profile and crunchy texture make them a popular choice for casual snacking and dipping.
