Last week, as the rising tide that is the Super Bowl lifted all nacho related news into the media forefront, a little article came out in Bloomberg Business with the clickbaitable title of "There's No Such Thing as Nacho Cheese". Spoiler Alert: That is a complete falsehood. If you want to call it something more accurate you could title it "There No Such Thing (As a Standard or Legal Definition of) Nacho Cheese", which isn't nearly as popping, and also not really news.

So the other day Good Morning America contacted me in regards to making a Super Bowl style commercial for The Field Guide to Nachos as they were looking for products for a sport food related version of Shark Tank. The catch was that I had about 6 hours to put the video together, which might have been ok if those 6 hours hadn't taken place on a day with a 3 foot of snow blizzard that the state wasn't shut down so I had to work with what I had on hand. This is that video.
Ultimately they decided to go in a different direction and didn't go with it (possibly due to the use of the word "Eldritch" or the featuring of the dreaded Nachonomicon) and while it's not of a Kubrickian quality of filmmaking, here it is for your enjoyment. The moral of the story is that if you have some crazy idea for making a product, like a Field Guide to Nachos, do it, and maybe you'll have a chance to be on TV! GOOOOOOOOOOO SPORTS!

"Tortilla chips prepared fresh daily piled high with hearty beans, a three-cheese blend, warm nacho cheese sauce, guacamole, pico de gallo, reduced-fat sour cream, and steak, steak and more steak."
Let’s get this out of the way right up front: shortly after consuming this order of XXL Nachos at Taco Bell I had a spurting case of diarrhea. Ha ha ha, we get it, Taco Bell is low hanging fruit, but that poop was a fact.
Read MoreA Friend in Nachos: I Enjoy Nachos
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I - I took the one lined in nachos and it led me to Nachonomics. I do sometimes wonder though what would have happened if I took that other road to making a website, which was also lined in nachos coincidentally, and now I have an answer; the site would have been I Enjoy Nachos.
