Frances Karttunen: 

TLAHTLAŌYOH, a tortilla wrapped around beans / clacloyo, tortilla con frijol adentro (T) [(1)Tp.231]. This seems to be missing an L before the suffix –YOH, but it is attested without one on the Spanish-to-Nahuatl side of T, too, and there is no L in the Hispanized form clacloyo. See TLAŌL-LI, -YOH.
