Baby New Potatoes Solanum tuberosum

Potato is the starchy underground tuber of a nightshade (Solanaceae). Eaten whole/cooked it is rich in potassium, vitamin C, B6, and fiber (skin on). Whole potato: WFPB canonical (level 1). Refined forms (flour, fried chips) are noncanonical.

Tortillas Zea mays

Flatbread of nixtamalized corn (masa), water and a trace of slaked lime (calcium hydroxide, a nixtamalization aid, not a flavor additive). 'Store-bought or homemade' is instruction text.
