I live in a humid climate (especially in the summer), and if we don't refrigerate our bread and tortillas, or any baked goods, they get moldy in like 4 days.

Have you tried freezing it?

Refrigerating baked goods accelerates staleness, but most baked goods freeze well.

Only exception for me is tortillas. I mean they technically freeze well, but they will also stick together which would make quite a thick burrito.

My parents always freeze them and I always forget until I'm there trying to make a burrito and it tears in half.

yup. tortillas go in the fridge so you can get individual ones easily. Staleness never really bothered me, but i do warm them up on the stove to improve malleability. And i like to get my burritos a little crispy on the outside to help seal the final fold. Now i want burritos...

I freeze tortillas, one trick to using them after they thaw is rolling the whole package a couple of times both ways.

Still have to be careful separating them, but it's no worse than a package of tortilla that has sat underneath too much weight for too long.

This trick also works with tortillas that sat underneath too much weight for too long

Chuck them in the microwave or better yet put baking paper (which if i recall correctly you usians call wax paper or parchment paper) in between each tortilla before you freeze it to keep them seperate
