LOL...I give up. I am sure I am being dense here with that graphic!
I LOVE nachos. They should include: flour chips, seasoned ground beef, maybe some refried beans as a bottom layer, black olives, jalapeno slices, tiny tomato chunks..... lots of cheese. Must have dips/add-ons: Salsa, sour cream, and guacamole. I make my “instant” version by keeping small baggies of seasoned ground beef in the freezer, enough for one plate/one meal for one (me)… then thaw the meat, assemble in a layer or two on a plate, and one minute or so in the microwave.... Not ideal, but certainly acceptable, and better than NOT having nachos!
I don’t care for odd versions, though, such as “Italian nachos” at Old Chicago, or along that line.

My IQ is well about average but have absolutely no idea what a nacho is. Probably Mexican.
I hate Mexican food. Have been there several times. The more expensive the hotel, the sicker I got.
Blackberry tequila? I gotta look that up!
Corn tortillas, quarter, deep fry, salt, drain, heap with cheese, stick under broiler until melty. Top with pickled jalapenos.
Salsa and guacamole on the side.
NO devils lettuce in the guacamole.
Ok... if you must.... but keep it on your side of the table.
I would guess y'all adjusted since then by putting mussels on corn tortillas and calling it good.
Chimichangas were invented here in Tucson. ( They are basically deep fried burritos )
Funny, I worked at Arlington Stadium for a couple years in the concession stands, 78/79 - still have the scrap book and nachos were very big, non-stop tortilla deep fry, gallons of cheese whiz and Schlitz beer. Oh yeah, hot dogs of dubious provenance, the greener the older. But nacho’s by far were the biggest seller.
I’m partial to the inauthentic nachos loaded with seasoned ground beef, refried beans, guac, diced tomatoes or pico de galla, jalapenos, and sour cream. It’s a meal in itself not just a snack.
A good read, thank you !!
Nachos Grande, oh my!
It’s been a while, I’ll have to pull a dish together soon.
Not to stray too far from the Nacho...
Does anyone have a goto tamale?
The best nachos I ever had were back in the 80’s:
Naugles “Macho Nachos.”
Odd to celebrate Nacho’s innovation while in the same article slamming all other culinary innovations.
Good nachos are great and mediocre nachos are still pretty dang good. I don’t recall *ever* seeing a plate of nachos go unfinished.
