Heroes of Nachos: Trini Martinez

June 25, 2019 Nachonomics

What did you do for your twenty third birthday? I don't know for sure, but I'd bet probably something pretty stupid. I guarantee it wasn't filling a child's swimming pool with 25 bags of chip, 20 pounds of beans, 6 gallons of queso and 30 pounds of pico de gallo to create a pool of nachos. That is unless your name is Trini Martinez, and the particular one that made a pool of nachos as well.

Birthday idea 1: Keg. Lame. Birthday idea 2: Fill a kiddie pool with queso. Better, but like a 7, and we can make it a 9. Birthday idea 3: Fill a kiddie pool with nachos. And there's the money. "I was thinking 'aww, man, I should've just bought the keg,'" Martinez said. "But, everyone ate it, it was gone — gone by the end of the night [...] they were so stoked, they loved it." The words of a hero.

Some said they were "too soggy", or "unsanitary". Others on Youtube said they were "a germ and bacteria melting pot", or "bacteria nachos", or "While watch this is gross people pee and sneeze in the pool". Do you think Trini cared what they said? No, and that's why he is a nacho hero.

Review: Buffalo Wild Wings Dessert Nach... WAIT A SECOND!

June 15, 2019 Nachonomics

Why do restaurants change their menus? Do they think they’re cool, mixing things up and throwing off anyone that goes there expecting the food they are accustomed to? I’m sure this “surprise” may come as a positive for some people, but for the rest it is frequently a disappointment. Especially when it comes to nachos.

Review: Taco Bell Grande Nachos Box

June 5, 2019 Nachonomics

Shredded Chicken, Tortilla Chips, Refried Beans, Nacho Cheese Sauce, Sour Cream, Guacamole, Three Cheese Blend, Pico de Gallo

Some days you wake up, go down to the nacho well to get your tri-monthly commentary, reel up that old wooden bucket in expectation of some nice, cool writings, and find that it’s completely empty. Not just empty, but bone dry, and also a cow fell in and died down there, poisoning the whole thing. Yessiree, that well is a goner, and you need to find yourself a hot new nacho source, fast. Fortunately there is one nacho well that never runs dry, so I headed down to Taco Bell to try the new Grande Nachos Box.

Review: Mezcal Tequila Cantina - Barbacoa Pork Nachos

May 25, 2019 Nachonomics

Barbacoa Pork, Pineapple Salsa, Plantain Chips, Chipotle BBQ, Jack Cheese, Lettuce, Cilantro Crema, Sriracha Aioli

I like Mezcal Tequila Cantina. I like Nachos. I like Barbacoa Pork. So when I last went to Mezcal Tequila Cantina and saw they had Barbacoa Pork Nachos on their menu I thought God had answered my prayers. Then I saw that there were plantain chips on them, with the possibility that they had used them to replace the corn chips, and thought it might actually be the Devil. This was a mystery I had to solve.

RIP Silver King

May 15, 2019 Nachonomics

This weekend marked the passing of renowned Luchador Silver King, A.K.A. César Cuauhtémoc González Barrón, who passed away from an alleged heart attack during the Greatest Show of Lucha Libre in London. Silver King gained notoriety in the nacho world in, if not the nacho film we deserve then at least the nacho film we have, “Nacho Libre” playing the villainous Ramses. Fellow Mexican wrestler El Hijo del Santo wrote on Twitter: "I deeply regret the death of my great rival and partner in so many battles. He went as he wanted: fighting." You don’t get much better a memorial tweet than that.
