Any Mexican grocery store. La Morenita or La Tiendita will have them.

La Tiendita on Siegen? I've never been in there, always thought it was a restaurant. Thanks for the help.

Better choice and cheaper at LaMorenita Florida at Wooddale.

Another chain Mexican grocery is opening at Sherwood and Old Hammond by Harbor Freight. Not sure if open yet.

DO they have the papers? or just the corn husks? I prefer the papers over the husks. I may try to the place on Siegen by El Maggeys after work. Will have to try Florida/Sherwood if they don't have them.

I looked at Winn Dixie, and did not find anything, may have been looking in the wrong place. What section did you find them in?

Why the paper instead of corn husk? I don't know any Mexican that uses paper. The husk gives it flavor.

I wanted to try to replicate what I've gotten from carts and stands in the past. Also, didn't want to have to tie each one. May end up using the husks...
