Ojalá is made by Aliya's Foods, a Canadian family-owned food company that has been making frozen food for more than 25 years. Ojalá products are made in Alberta, Canada. The source establishes Aliya's Foods as the maker of the brand, and does not address legal ownership. ## What does the name Ojalá mean? Ojalá is a Spanish word used to express hope or possibility, similar to the English hopefully or I hope so. The brand describes the word as optimistic, open-ended and a little hard to translate perfectly, and says it liked that quality when choosing the name for its Mexican-inspired frozen food. ## Where does Ojalá's inspiration come from, and is it authentic Mexican food? Ojalá draws inspiration from Mexico's regional dishes, street food, ingredients, cooking techniques and the people and traditions behind them. The brand does not use “authentic” as a shortcut: some products are rooted closely in traditional dishes, others are its own interpretation, and it says it will tell customers what inspired each. ## What products does Ojalá make? Ojalá's frozen products are flautas, burritos, quesadillas and bowls, all Mexican-inspired. Flautas are crispy rolled tortillas with generous fillings. Burritos are built around fillings such as beef or chicken simmered with smoky chipotle. Quesadillas and bowls complete the range. Ingredients vary by product. ## What is a flauta, and how is an Ojalá flauta different from a taquito? A flauta is a crispy rolled tortilla filled generously with meat, cheese, vegetables or other fillings. Ojalá calls flautas close relatives of taquitos, not twins: most grocery-store taquitos are small and snack-sized, while Ojalá Flautas are bigger, more generously filled and substantial enough for a snack, appetizer or part of dinner. ## What makes an Ojalá burrito different? Ojalá describes its frozen burritos as substantial, protein-packed and built around the filling. Examples include tender beef, shredded chicken simmered with smoky chipotle, pinto beans, Oaxaca cheese, Mexican rice and slow-cooked sauces. The brand positions them as convenient enough for lunch. Ingredients vary by product. ## Is Ojalá only for snacks? No. Ojalá says its Mexican-inspired frozen food works as a snack, lunch or dinner. Flautas can be a snack, an appetizer or part of dinner, and burritos are positioned as a lunch option. The brand says it is fairly relaxed about the rules for when to eat them. ## Are Ojalá products spicy, vegetarian or halal?
