\nLas tortillas que cada día comían los señores se llaman totonqui tlaxcalli tlacuelpacholli; quiere decir, "tortillas blancas y calientes y dobladas", compuestas en un chiquíhuitl y cubiertas con un paño blanco. Otras tortillas comían también cada día, que se llamaban hueitlaxcalli; quiere decir "tortillas grandes". Éstas son muy blancas y muy delgadas y anchas, y muy blandas. Comían también otras tortillas que se llaman cuauhtlacualli; son muy blancas y grandes, y gruesas y ásperas. Otra manera de tortillas comían que llamaban tlaxcalpacholli; eran blancas, otras algo pardillas, de muy buen comer. También comían unos panecillos no redondos, sino largos, que llaman tlaxcalmimilli; son rollizos y blancos, y del largor de un palmo o poco menos. Otra manera de tortillas comían, que llamaban tlacepoalli tlaxcalli, que eran ahojaldrados. Eran de delicado comer. Comían también tamales de muchas maneras.
