There are many rare and elusive things in this world. Four leaf clovers. Coelacanths. Unicorns. Sasquatches. Almost as rare is an order of nachos made with waffle fries. Fortunately after years of checking field cameras, making plaster casts of footprints, and collecting and carefully logging hair samples, one of these elusive creatures has been located at The Coop in Millbury, Massachusetts.
Firstly, this is the picture that greets you when you enter the restaurant. It’s undoubtedly the Picasso’s Guernica of our time.

A copy of "The Field Guide to Nachos", "Nachos & You", and "Recipes from the Nachonomicon". This is literally and literately all the nacho knowledge you will ever require.
The Field Guide to Nachos, a pocket sized reference to the history, types, and background of the greatest of Mexican delicacies.
READ... The true story of how Ignacio Anaya created "The Nacho" in 1943.
LEARN... How nachos moved from Mexico and spread across America like shredded cheese melting across a pile of chips.
KNOW... the real difference between natural cheese versus pasteurized processed cheese product. It's terrifying.
DIFFERENTIATE... between kinds of popular nachos that are to be found in our modern restaurants.
Nachos & You, a pocket sized manual on, well, living your life the nacho way.
READ... The "true" story of how Gentleman Frank Liberto (Not to be confused with the upstanding Frank Liberto of Rico's or the Frank Liberto of Martin Luther King Jr. assassination infamy) created "The Nacho" in 1976. I say "true" because it is an obvious satire and parody.
LEARN... To pickle your own jalapenos for varying degrees of “fun” and “profit”, but more importantly bragging rights on being more artisinal than your friends.
KNOW... The science of creating nachos with circular chips as opposed to triangular chips and when to use each so as to not cause embarrassing cultural faux pas.
EXPERIENCE... The terror of “Nacho Fingers”, and the joy of curing yourself of them to avoid being ostracized by the community at large.
Recipes from the Nachonomicon, a pocket sized cookbook of all the finest types of nachos from throughout the ages, all now easily available at your fingertips.
READ... The History of the Nachonomicon and how it became the blueprint for all the nachos you know and love today!
LEARN... How to cook the finest examples of each member of the nacho family from "Artisanal" to "Single Serving." (There's no general type of nacho that begins with "Z" so that's as good as it gets alphabet wise, and I wouldn't want to trick you into thinking there was a type of called "ZBBQ Nachos" or something.)
KNOW... The joy that comes of making you, or a loved one, a delicious meal of nachos that will both satiate your hunger and allow you to know the true satisfaction of being able to provide the sustenance to keep a human being alive.
TASTE... Nachos, and lots of them, once you make them of course.
With these three books, you can feel secure in the knowledge that you'll be able to give a T.E.D. talk on every single aspect of nachos. Probably closer to three T.E.D. talks as a matter of fact! Do they even let you do that? I don't know, but with nacho knowledge like yours you will undoubtedly be the first!

Review: Rail Trail Flatbread Co.
STREET CORN NACHOS - Pulled Pork, Corn Garnachas Chips, Fire Roasted Corn, Pimento Aioli, Roasted Cubanelle, Red Onion, Jalapeños, Queso, Roasted Tomatillo Salsa, Cilantro
Imagine you go to a quaint country fair and are wandering through it when a strange man approaches you in front of an unmarked tent. “Hey buddy,” he whispers, “want to see a man eating chicken? Only thirteen dollars.” You of course want to see whatever gigantic beast of a chicken this character has located in his tent, and maybe even see it eat a man as well if you’re forking over $13. You pay up, he opens the tent flaps to let you inside, and you wander down to a single chair in a room so dark you can barely see the gigantic metal cage in front of you. You sit, hearing the snuffling and chewing of presumably the monstrous beast inside, and begin to sweat with anticipation. “BEHOLD!” The carney yells, and flips on the light… to reveal some regular ol’ dude in the cage, sitting at a table, a cooked chicken in front of him, eating it. You turn to the carnival chap, shouting at how bamboozled you were, and his reply is, “Well, this is our interpretation of a man eating chicken.” Pretty much the exact same thing happened to me Rail Trail Flatbread Co. when I ordered Street Corn Nachos.
