Yes — most supermercados run an in-store tortillería making corn and flour tortillas throughout the day. Buy them warm — they're dramatically better than packaged.
Every Mexican grocery sells masa harina (Maseca) in bags; supermercados with a tortillería also sell fresh prepared masa — preparada (seasoned for tamales) or natural — by the pound.
Queso fresco is fresh, soft, mild, and crumbles wet — for tacos and salads. Cotija is aged, dry, salty, and crumbles like Parmesan — for grating over elote, beans, and soups.
