The Father of Nachos: A Texan

While, indubitably, Ignacio "Nacho" Anaya of Piedras Negras was the inventor of the nacho, the "Father of Nachos" was a Texan by the name of Frank Liberto. The "stadium nacho," as it is now called, was Frank Liberto's brainchild. He mixed cheese sauce, jalapeno juice, and water together and figured out how to squirt it out of a dispenser.

Stadium nachos made their big debut at Arlington Stadium, the home of the Texas Rangers, in 1976. Considering the Rangers' record of 76 wins and 86 losses that year, finishing 14 games out of first place, stadium nachos were clearly the highlight of the season. In the coming years, stadium nachos swept the nation. And that's "nacho" ordinary story.

Here is an article in Smithsonian Magazine about nachos.
