Why not just fix your nacho jones at home? Nachos are easy to make and you
can have them just the way you like them. As for the cheese, I seek out
"Mexican" (Tex-Mex) restaurants that DON'T smother everything in grated
cheese or will honor a request for using less or none. De gustibus non est
disputandum.
