No, I didn't make it. I bought it. Was kind of afraid to try it after
tasting other cheeze sauces that didn't really taste like cheese or that
horrid nut cheese that I bought recently. But this will go bad on 6/5 so
warily had a tiny bite. Oh yum!

Gonna make some nachos with this tonight. It tastes the most like real
cheddar than anything else I ever tried. Too bad it's so expensive.

BTW I did try their Monterrey Jack and did not like that at all. Did not
taste like cheese to me.

So the only choices are between the bovine's vegan imitation shit, or
Steve's ****ing White trash Crisco dogshit?
How about make real cheese sauce with cheese and heavy cream?

I don't even blame Julie because she's obviously too defective to
expect anything from, but Wertz isn't an idiot, so he has no excuse.
Though maybe all that food-slum Crisco crap has clogged his brain.

Oh cool: http://www.ricos.com/t-WhatsNew.aspx after all the years of

I'm not scared of food. But cheese makes me very sick. So sick that I
won't have it again. I used to get the nachos at Target but wouldn't be
able to finish my shopping trip without a trip to the bathroom about halfway
through. And then it was a race to get home where I would camp out in the
bathroom again for most of the night. Believe me, eating cheese isn't worth
it!

We have bought two that were really good. The huge can from Costco, can't
remember the brand. And a small can that Winco sells. Can't remember the
brand of that one either but I would know it by sight. Don't think we can
get Rico's here. Lately, daughter has been getting the Frito Lay kind.
It's good but the other stuff is much cheaper.

I would be surprised if what they used was even mostly cheese.

I haven't seen Ricos here in the bay area, but if I see it, I'll try it.
My current favorite is "El Mexicano" at about $2.50 a can. Add a can of
Ro*Tel (I use the "Habanero HOT"), and nuke it 'till it's hot and runny.
I also add a goodly pile of chopped jalapenos just because ...

Yes! El Mexicano! That is the good stuff that they sell at Winco. They do
have other brands. We didn't try them because that one was so good!

It's your standard mild cheese sauce. Pretty sure it was the same stuff
that we had when I worked at the golf course. Comes in a big squeeze bag.

I've tried Juanita's and one other (Montecito??) but prefer El Mexicano.
Interestingly, the first place I ran across it was in a Korean
supermarket.

Most of the ones I've been in have a lot of weird, American looking products
and yet they are not things that you can get in our standard stores.

I talk to some people online who are in Malaysia and Singapore. Both say
that they have nachos there. But when they described them to me, they were
not quite what we eat here. Their chips are oddly flavored for instance and
they might put things like shrimp and curry powder on them.

I buy the cheese sauce at Sam's in #10 cans for about $6. They have
nacho flavor and cheddar flavor, and I usually get the cheddar. I think
it might be Rico brand; I haven't bought it in a while. It freezes
pretty well. It looks weird when it thaws, but is fine after you melt
it again.

It's a good ingredient to use in hotdish instead of condensed Cream of
Soup, although it's not a direct substitute.
