Zesty_nachos

Taco Bell has recently released a new item on their menu: Zesty Nachos. These nachos consist of chips, “zesty sauce with a kick and nacho cheese sauce”, seasoned beef, cool sour cream, and tomatoes. According to our standards, this is pushing the limit of too much.

Last night my brother took them for a whirl. So how did they measure up?

Ding! Your nachos are done

Story suggestion by: Dan S. Email us a story.

PatentInventors are cool. But inventors that invent nacho related inventions are cooler. An email recently hit our inbox with a list of various nacho patents. One particular patent, however, rose to the top as the most practical. Inventor, Kim Y. Edomwonyi, created packaging that enables microwavable nachos to be sold that will evenly distribute cheese sauce and prevent soggy chips. Genious! All we need now is to wait for someone to actually start manufacturing and using this breakthrough in nacho packaging.

Wild Nacho Tamed

WildnachoShopping at my local supermarket, I came across a Doritos flavor I’d never seen before — Wild White Nacho. Already having an opinion on pre-packaged “nacho cheese flavored” chips, the correct choice would’ve been to walk away. Instead, I was compelled to try this wild new flavor and report my findings to the NCLC (Nacho Cheese Loving Community).

For starters, I think I liked these chips better when they were called “ranch.” And as for being “wild,” they were anything but. I was expecting a chip that would tickle my tastebuds with some zest, or have a little spicy kick and bite back. But alas, I was left with a relatively boring chip that didn’t have any sort of lasting impression.

Know Thy Enemy

NachoenemyEveryone loves nacho cheese, right? Wrong! We live in a crazy mixed up world where there are actually people out there trying to spread propaganda against the beauty that is nacho cheese. We have found one such individual and feel an obligation to the nacho cheese community to identify the enemy.

In an article entitled, “Behold the Evils of Cheese” posted on Visionary Darkness, a cheese-hater going by the alias Killing Joke entertains the notion that cheese is an evil force that’s taking over America. Don’t let this writer’s name full you. He is anything but joking. Make no mistake, Killing Joke is on a mission to rid the world of this wonderfully delicious gooey elixir.

Great Game, Better Nachos

UnamasI just got home from the last game of the regular season for the San Jose Sharks. And what a game it was! Trailing 2 to 3 against the visiting Canucks, Jonathan Cheechoo scored with only 30 seconds left in the third to force overtime. But before we get to the final outcome, lets reverse time to before the start of the game.

When I arrived, I made my way to the Una Mas! Mexican Grill located in the HP Pavilion. I ordered nachos, a large soda, and then headed to my seats in section 212 before digging into the box of chip and cheese goodness.

Ding! Your Nachos are Done (Redux)

DingLast month, we posted a story on a patent for a microwavable nacho box. Shortly after, the inventor, Kim Y. Edomwonyi contacted us. During a quick conversation, we learned that Kim currently lives in the midwest in a small town in the southeastern tip of Iowa. Originally from Atlanta, GA, Kim never intend to stay but it’s “comfortable, with no traffic, less stress, and safer” than the big city.

But what inspired Kim to become an inventor? And furthermore, what was the inspiration behind the microwavable nacho box? We were able to conduct a quick interview with Kim to find out the answers to these questions.

Magic Bullet for Nanosecond Nachos

Story suggestion by: Jayne M. Email us a story.

MagicianCan’t sleep? Find yourself watching television at 1 o’clock in the morning? Then you’ve probably seen the commercial for Magic Bullet. This product claims that it’s the “personal, versatile, countertop magician that does any job in 10 seconds…or less.®” Strong claim. But can this “magician” make nachos? As a matter of fact, it can! The Magic Bullet comes with a plethora of attachments and also includes the “10 Second Recipe Book.” One recipe is called Nanosecond Nachos.

Obviously this recipe is only good if you actually own the Magic Bullet. But if you were thinking about picking one up and was on the fence, perhaps knowing that there’s a quick-and-easy 10 second recipe included with purchase will tip the scale.

If you’re interested in checking out the recipe, click here.
