Your SuperBowl nachos won't be affected by rising tortilla prices

corn tortillasIf you've been sitting on the edge of your seat rapidly surfing through the 'Net waiting to find out about tortilla prices, well, the conclusion is here. According to CNN, Mexico president Felipe Calderon has signed an agreement with businesses "to curb soaring tortilla prices and protect Mexico's poor from speculative sellers and a surge in the cost of corn driven by the U.S. ethanol industry." It also moves to allow more importation of corn from countries like the US.

So fire up those fryers and make up some tortilla chips. Your SuperBowl will have nachos! (At least, my SuperBowl will *phew!*)
