It occured to me that I should have bent the tortilla bag a little, and warmed it in the microwave, and to hell with that BS! I did bend it, and if I heat it, the plastic bag will release toxic chemicals.

I could holler at the manufacturer, for sticking them in huge heavy boxes, or the shipper for throwing them down so hard, or the store manager for not rotating stock to keep them fresh, or the bagger, yeah, for tossing that bag of turnips on them, but going on tyrades tends to just get people fired, or causes security to hassle me. A technological soultion might be better, and since an automated bagger seems too obvious, I'll see about the tortillas.

A genuius halfbaker might suggest packing the tortillas with a bit of flour or corn starch, or baking them differently so they don't stick together. If that works, without altering the taste, then fine! I just don't know that it will work without altering the taste.

As for me, I may be smart, but I'm no genius. I propose that we insert pieces of waxed paper or plastic between each tortilla, as is done with certain hamburger patties and fancy cookies. Admittedly, this will increase garbage output, but at least I won't have to develop some complicated, arcane tortilla cutter aparter doo dad. ( I do so hate having to develop CATCADDs...)
