Superbowl feast - help!

This thread has made me want nachos!

Have fun Vicky!  DH and I took off Monday last year to watch the game and had a great time (except the Bears lost, which sucked!).

Vicky we couldn't find nachos either, we're just using lightly salted Doritos instead. Salsa, cheese, jalapenos, a few min in microwave, quac and sour cream on the side and presto!

-The supermarket had no nachos

Dont buy nachos ready-made!   Make them yourself with tortilla chips and cheese and whatever else you like on them!

To be honest, I thought this is what everyone did for nachos...I've only heard of them being ready made at places like movie theaters and sporting events.

You can buy 'American-style' nachos in the ready meal section of most UK grocery stores. I don't think you'd find them much in the US but I could be wrong.

Now I'm confused! I didn't know you could buy ready made ones either! When V said the shop was out of nachos, I thought she meant the actual corn chips .. maybe that is what she meant?

Anyway I think I'm going to be asleep before the superbowl even starts tonight!

Oh, ok. I've never seen them in a US supermarket, though I haven't really looked because we do always just make our own.

She may well have meant just the corn chips. I just know I was very surprised to see nachos in the ready meal section. I know M&S does them, and I'm pretty sure both Sainsburys and Tescos do, too. They are usually part of an 'American' line of stuff. I think potato skins and a few other things are in that section, too.

We never buy them. I'm not even sure how I noticed them as we usually don't even go down that aisle!

Is the Superbowl tonight?  Who's playing?

oh, well if she meant the tortilla chips, why didnt she say tortilla chips?     
only the finished product is called 'nachos'!   

(i have seen disgusting looking ready-made nachos in the supermarket chiller cabinet with all the other disgusting looking 'American' style stuff)

Yep, Patriots and Giants isn't it?

Thanks.  Someone's bound to say something to me at work about it tomorrow.  At least I won't look like a complete dope.

I'm now desperate for nachos. Thanks guys. 

May have to rework this week's menu and nip to the shops for beans, tortilla chips, and an avocado. Think I may have everything else....

I don't even like American football - how did I end up on this thread??

Me either.  I hadn't even looked at this thread till I just saw it and wondered when the stupid game actually was.
