That sports related thing that's going on today that we're not leagally able to say the name of...

February 2, 2014 Nachonomics

So there's a thing going on today that legally we're not able to say the name of, but let's just say that it involves a leather ovoid shaped thing that people carry down an expanse of grass with their hands despite it being named after another of their appendages. As said sport is heavy on the love of nachos hopefully you will enjoy some, perhaps with chips the color of the team that you want to win, or whatever goddamn color of chips you want, because this is America, and these colors don't run. And freedom ain't free. Love it or leave it. Whatever, just eat some nachos.

Play With Your Food: Sara's Cooking Class - Nachos & Dip

January 25, 2014 Nachonomics

Like most people growing up in the “Millennial Generation” I am quite a fan of video games. This is all well and good until it's combined with also being a fan of nachos, as a sedentary lifestyle plus bad for you food equals increased bodily fatty deposits. If only there was some other way to combine the two loves, some kind of nacho video game for example. A quick Google later and I had found such a game and after a long period of extended boredom I had come to the conclusion that there was a reason why nacho related games weren't a big thing

Review: Qdoba Mexican Grill

Handmade Tortilla Chips, Black Beans, Pulled Pork, 3-Cheese Queso, Pico de Gallo, Shredded Cheese, Sour Cream

Qdoba is a Mexicanish restaurant that has been around for awhile and in the past, when I was a young lad, I had been there a time or two and was surprised that they offered no nachos. NO NACHOS!?!? That’s right, there are never enough interrobangs to express the questions and exclamations behind a Mexican place that doesn’t have nachos. I figured that at a restaurant where they don’t even put a “U” after the “Q” in their name perhaps not having nachos isn’t that strange. I never returned. Until last week. And they now have nachos.

Obligatory Best of 2013 Post

December 31, 2013 Nachonomics
20131231_122730.jpg

In feeling that we would be remiss in not posting a “Best Nachonomics of 2013”, we’re jumping on that bandwagon. Here you go!

REVIEWS

BEST: Ground Kontrol Classic Arcade Nachos

DSC01422.JPG

The visit, subsequent overeating, and interview with the good people at Ground Kontrol Classic Arcade is possibly the finest on the site. Plus they had some of the craziest nachos we’ve ever seen.

RUNNER UP: Bigfoot Food and Spirits

Bigfoot.jpg

My first visit to the Seattle/Tacoma airport I didn’t have time to visit and I thought I might never get a chance to have nachos with Bigfoot meat. On my second I almost missed my flight, but the nachos were so good it was worth it. Sadly they did not offer Bigfoot meat as a topping.

VIDEO

BEST: Orbit's Nacho-Human Hybrid

7odk~7~800.jpg

One of the most disgusting things we’ve ever seen on screen, and we’ve seen Salo, or the 120 Days of Sodom.

RUNNER UP: Nachos and Baseball

This is Na-Cho Ball.gif

Mad skills yo.

ESSAY

BEST: Nacho Science - Nachos in Space

Nachos_in_Space_650.bmp.scaled696.jpg

Nachos, they’re not just for Earth anymore, but you probably wouldn’t want to eat them in space.

RUNNER UP: United States of Nachos: The Guy Fieriing of Food Reality Television

Nightmare_Guy_650.bmp.scaled696.jpg

Nobody wants to see a TV chef that's all douched up, and that's one of the reason you probably don’t want to see a nacho show.

OTHER

BEST: NachoProviCon: Day One

Lovecraft Bust.jpg

There is no better combo than H.P. Lovecraft and nachos, however the nacho tour of Providence, Rhode Island was sadly as lacking as the author was racist.

RUNNER UP: T'was The Nacho Before Christmas

Merry Christmas.png

Guaranteed to be the only Christmas story you read this year where Krampus gets punched in the junk.


Well that’s 2013 in a nutshell. If you think that’s some good nacho news, just wait for 2014, it’ll be full of double plus good nacho news! Have an excellent New Years Eve and watchout for the New Year’s Baby. Legend has it that if you’re alone after dark it will sneak into your place and suck a year of your life away to remain forever young.

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!
