[Aprendo]

Today my Spanish teacher from Mexico and I were talking about corn tortillas and naturally made ones being healthier than the processed ones outside of MX and places far away.

The processed corn tortillas (or say, any processed foods)


No están saludable como pareciera


She also said using the indicative is also OK.


No están saludable como parece.


I asked why but she's not into these matters.

If the subjunctive is OK, why not the present subjuntive?

How does using the indicative and subjunctive change the meaning?


Thanks, if anyone can answer.
