The Dreaded Chipbomination

October 5, 2020 Derek Sotak

Every now and then either by evolution or a fluke in genetics there is created an aberration. Sometimes it’s a two headed snake, sometimes a cat with extra eyes, sometimes an eight legged cow. Sometimes though, just sometimes it is an absolute abomination, and sometimes that abomination is made out of chips. Sometimes there are CHIPBOMINATIONS

Nacho Halloween Costumes

October 25, 2018 Nachonomics

Let me tell you about all the available nacho costumes for this Halloween as we quickly approach the holiday and the end of Octchober. Or rather I would if there were any to talk about, which there aren’t. I suppose the next best thing that I can do is show you all the ones that come close and bemoan the lack of true nacho costumes out there. Get on it Yandy!

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you, The Horror at Otter Creek Brewing Company! Spoiler Alert: The nachos were good, that’s not the ghastliness, but you’ll have to read on to find out the pants-soiling fear I am still keeping you in suspense of!

Review: Taco Chulo

October 5, 2018 Nachonomics

Tortilla Chips, Chihuahua Cheese, Spicy Chopped Pickled Vegetables, Olives, Pinto Beans, Pico de Gallo, Pulled Pork

You ever go into a situation not expecting to become the victim of a cruel joke, only to end up becoming the victim of a cruel joke, and then find that said joke wasn’t really a joke and you probably just said the wrong thing and you were actually hoisted by your own petard? Of course not, who would be so dumb as to let that happen to them… BTW, let me tell you a completely unrelated story, a horror story fitting for Octchober, about a Mexican restaurant I visited and the nachos I had there...

OCTCHOBER: NACHO NEWS & THE NACHO NEWS NETWORK & NACHOS & YOU

October 5, 2015 Derek Sotak
The Lava Nachos at Knott's Scary Farm

The Lava Nachos at Knott's Scary Farm

As we enter the spookiest month of the nacho year, Octchober (which comes before the second scariest month of the year, 'Chovember) it's best to round up a few outstanding administrative news pieces. Administrative NACHO news related pieces, as if we were going to discuss any other kind on this site. Also the above Halloween related nachos can be found at Knott's Scary Farm during the horror season, if you're in the area of course. Did I ever tell you how my friends and I summoned the evil god Knott at summer camp on year and then had to cast it back into the abyss from whence it came? Now that is a scary story, but not one fit for a nacho page. Ask me in real life and I'll tell you, but it might turn your hair white, WITH TERROR.

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!
