Lime

[edit]

I'm not going to change it since I'm not absolutely sure, but I think lime should be linking to Lime (fruit), not Lime (material). Flonnezilla (talk) 03:20, 28 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No, it is correct. There is no citrus in corn masa, the lime, or cal as it's called in Spanish, is used to break down the kernels. See Nixtamalization. Danfeder (talk) 17:51, 18 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I had them in Mexico once where my aunt made them with only refried beans and Nopalitos. Of course the slimy texture of the Nopalitos was rather daunting. But it was good nevertheless. I've always assumed this a common way to prepare them. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.74.214.156 (talk) 03:44, 9 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
