Mission Carb Balance Burrito Flour Tortilla
A large low-carb, high-fiber tortilla that may be useful for wraps or burritos, but the very high fiber content can cause bloating, gas, cramping, constipation, diarrhea, or uncomfortable fullness for some people.
Why it received this rating
Mission’s burrito-size Carb Balance tortilla is lower in net carbohydrates and may be marketed as GLP-1 friendly, but one large tortilla can provide a very large amount of fiber, potentially close to a full-day fiber target depending on the current label and individual guidance. For people taking a GLP-1 medication, especially during dose changes or lower-appetite days, that much fiber at once may be difficult to tolerate.
Nutrition snapshot
Per serving: 1 tortilla (70g, burrito size)

Portion and preparation guidance
Start with half a tortilla the first few times, not a whole one, and not two. The fiber load of one burrito-size tortilla (28g) is more than many people eat in an entire day.
Symptoms or considerations
This is one of the highest-fiber single items in the entire database. Added-fiber products like this commonly cause gas, bloating, cramping, or a heavy full feeling when digestion is slowed, especially if fiber intake jumps suddenly. Increase slowly and drink fluids with it.

Corn tortillas are often smaller and simpler. Whole-grain tortillas may provide more natural fiber. Low-carb tortillas may be much higher in added fiber, so they can be useful but may need portion adjustment.
Common questions
Why does this tortilla bother some stomachs on a GLP-1?
Each burrito-size tortilla carries 28g of fiber, mostly modified wheat starch. That is close to a full day of fiber in one wrap. With slowed digestion, that much added fiber at once frequently causes gas, bloating, or cramping until your gut adapts.
Is 4g net carbs accurate?
That is the label math: 32g total carbs minus 28g fiber. The net-carb figure is most relevant for blood sugar; for GLP-1 comfort, the fiber number is usually the one that matters.
Burrito vs soft taco vs fajita size: which should I start with?
Smallest first. The fajita size (45 calories) and soft taco size (70 calories, 15g fiber) deliver much less fiber per piece than the burrito size, which makes them easier test portions.
