Nachonomics: Year 14

May 5, 2026 Nachonomics

That gooey tasty cheesy tang, those spicy jalapeno wagon wheels, roll into my stomach, bloody meat, run red with salsa, with tomato, white with onion, green with envy, avocado mashed, smashed, sour cream, topping those golden triangles, that crisp, that crunch, divine dinner, luscious lunch, I have a hunch, to munch, lips scrunch, maw opens, the final crunch, mastication, vacation, relation, gestation, revelation. Nachoation.

Hey folks, my nacho beat poetry career is really taking off, as you can obviously read above. I’ve got a vinyl pressing of my last show coming out soon, so be sure to sign up for the pre-order pre-launch page on PrePledge for first backer cred. Yeah, I’ve been channeling the raw poetic truth about nachos all over… I mean… I…

Oh god, what am I doing? I shouldn’t be writing nacho beat poetry, I should be eating nachos. Wow, I almost really blew that right? That would have been a real mistake. I don’t know what I’m going to do with these 10,000 “Hymns of Uncaged Nachos” records I ordered though. I will never financially recover from this. JKLOL

On this, the fourteenth anniversary of this fair site (just ignore a few of the bare patches occasionally) we should never be writing beat poetry about nachos, or anything else. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, “No Rhymes = No Poetry, #LimerickLife”, and I have the non rhyming poetry protest banners to prove it. But I digress, we’re here for nachos.

And doesn’t that just sum up life? We’re all just here for the nachos, each and every one of us. Don’t take it from me, a fourteen year veteran of the nacho reporting beat, take it from your heart. Take it from your stomach. Take your nachos and eat them. Everyone else should be taking their nachos and eating them. We should all be eating our nachos.

Did I just come up with a new bumper sticker? Copyright copyright TM TM TM. Happy Cinco de Mayo everyone.

Nachonomics: ('na-cho-'na-miks)

noun. The branch of knowledge concerned with the production, consumption, and distribution of nachos.

Book: Complete Nacho Knowledge Book: Complete Nacho Knowledge
Book: Complete Nacho Knowledge
$20.00

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!
