Tacos for dinner

  This one time , in my mid 20s. I was dating this guy. He invited me over. Said he was going to make me nachos. He said he had a whole fancy way to make them. Really talked them up.

  I get there and he puts chips on a plate. Covers in cooked ground hamburger and yellow cheese. Microwaves it.

  (That was all the ingredients) And presented it to me like it was his best.

  I mean maybe it was.

  I personally don’t like that nasty yellow nacho cheese.

  But I ate it anyway and complimented him.

  But I was super disappointed. I still remember the event. 25 years ago.

  Also I felt bad for him that he apparently didn’t know how to cook. He was like 27 then.

  This image somehow brought up all those feelings of disappointment after all the hype and then followed by pity for the creator.

    that is one of the stories that it is upvoted because it is both funny and sad :) i feel bad for you but also you have to look at the bright side: you learned something (e.g. to value proper cooking skills for yourself)

    15 years later and you still think about him. His plan worked.

      She married him so he didn’t die of scurvy.

    Ghetto nachos have their place. I prefer making them with Doritos or Hint o Lime chips.

      ooo I haven’t made them with Doritos before, that sounds great. Gonna try it next time I have munchies.

    I got nachos once in a “Mexican” restaurant in Greece.

    It was basically this, but instead of the hamburger, it was 4 kidney beans. Literally 4. The cheese solidified back into a sheet that could be lifted off the chips entirely. My partner and I laughed so hard that people were giving us weird looks.

    So hey, maybe he’s got a job now as a cook in Greece!

      Dear Mexicans, Europe needs you and your culinary skills so bad. Forget the U.S, get your ass to Greece !

      I’d say “Mexican” food sucks in most European countries. I had exactly what you had in several places here. The only thing I’ve ever had that I could call real Mexican food was the tacos I ate from a food stand made by an actual Mexican in Netherlands.

      Wait….wouldn’t midwest food crimes be things like hot sauce and flavor that isn’t cheese or cheese food product?

  That’s Mexican’t

  There’s Mexican food, there’s also American Ortega style Mexicanish food. Both have a place in my household’s dinner rotation.

  This image depicts neither of those meals. This image is evidence from a crime scene.

  Is Mexico in the room with you?

  I see a piece of chicken, a piece of broccoli, a tortilla and “one other thing.” Sounds like a balanced meal to the Trump administration.

  • RisingSwell@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨6⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    Is that broccoli? I thought it was 2 bits of chicken under what looks like some sort of cheese.

    Trash serving size on top of it all

    • SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone ⁨6⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      I don’t actually know if it is or not, just unclear enough to riff on current Trump admin food guidelines.

  Can’t even give the tortilla burn marks to make it taste a little better.

  I’d eat it
