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...

In Remembrance… Nachos NY

September 25, 2018 Nachonomics

You may not be aware, and will undoubtedly be shocked to hear, but Nachonomics was not the first nacho website on the internet. I realize this is hard to believe, knowing as you do about all the many years of in depth nacho reporting that has gone on here, but there was a time when this was not the case. Indeed, there was a time when we did not even exist at all, but there was instead another nacho website people would go to. If it was not the first it was the first that mattered, and that was Nachos NY.

Review: Regal Cinemas

September 15, 2018 Nachonomics

Pulled Pork, Bacon, Tomatoes, Jalapenos, Nacho Cheese

I like to go to the movies. The sights, the sounds, the cinema, the whole shebang. The theater I usually go to is a large, stand alone building in a field of parking lot, but when I went to the special theatrical presentation of Mandy the other day I had to visit the Regal Cinemas at the local mall. This was unfortunate in that it was a longer drive to get to, but good in that I got a Cinnabon while walking around looking for new shoes before the film. There are some days though, days when you are eagerly awaiting to see how crazy Nicholas Cage is going to be in the latest Panos Cosmatos vehicle for example, when a single Cinnabon “Classic Roll” isn’t going to meet your caloric needs. Days when you need an additional 800+ calories from some movie theater concession nachos to make it through. Days like the one I am going to relate to you now where I sampled the Regal Cinemas Loaded Nachos.

Review: Crooked Lake Ice Cream Company

September 5, 2018 Nachonomics

Waffle cone chips, Chocolate Lovers ice cream, brownie bits, crushed Oreo, whipped cream, maraschino cherry

We’ve reviewed a lot of nachos here at Nachonomics. Nachos with every meat under the sun, and every vegetable under the ground. Nachos for the best of times, nachos for the worst of times. Nachos you can eat with a fox, and nachos you can eat in a box. Yes, we’ve had nachos for breakfast, nachos for lunch, and nachos for dinner, but never once nachos for dessert. Until now.
