I used to be surprised when I would meet people that thought that tortilla chips smothered in psuedo-cheese was what "nachos" were. I have since realized that growing up in Texas till I was 11 has given me a different perspective on what real food is.

One day about 8 years ago, I decided that I had just about had it with my best friend always having Taco Hell, er Bell, wrappers in his kitchen garbage when I went over and told him that I would cook a real tex-mex meal for him and his wife. So the next week I went over and cooked tacos, nachos, chalupas, pinto beans and enchiladas.

It was 2 years before they could bring themselves to eat at Taco Bell again.

That being said, I'm not a fan of Wolf Brand Chili or any other canned chili to be honest. But if I need some chili for Frito Pie or chili-dogs, canned chili is acceptable I guess.

I have had "nachos" that were tortilla chips covered with melted velveeta sprinkled with jalapeno slices from a can,I call this concoction "Texas Stadium Nachos".
