That sounds interesting. I just wonder about the corn chips and wonder
if you could use tortilla chips instead. You might need a few herbs and
spices to make up for the chemical additives.

Yes we can get tortilla chips. Her recipe was for corn chips.

Original Frito's corn chips contain pretty much the same thing as tortilla chips: Fritos Original Corn Chips are made from corn, vegetable oil (which can include corn and/or canola oil), and salt.
Fritos simply taste different from tortilla chips.  I've tried using crushed tortilla chips in the salmon patty recipe but it's just not the same.
