The new Hispanic concept Kroger store is open in South Houston with fresh juices, ceviche and tortillas. Here is what you should try.

Despite Texas' proximity to Mexico, even large chain grocery stores in Houston often don't have all the ingredients and products needed for traditional Mexican cooking. But a Kroger in South Houston is feeling a little closer to home as it offers 900 new products catering to the Latino community. I certainly felt more connected to my Mexican roots when I walked into the store last week and heard the song, 'Nunca Es Suficiente' playing and saw products familiar to my upbringing.

I had a sample of the crema and a quince jelly, which is an apple-like fruit, and I really enjoyed it. But for nostalgic reasons, I bought sliced white quesadilla cheese. This cheese melts perfectly and is even great to eat cold. Sliced Mexican queso $4.26 Tortillas and chips In the bakery section, I grabbed a bag of fresh corn tortillas. These surpass any tortillas you'd find in a typical bread aisle.
