Looks tasty. To answer the kosher-naco comment that gunnut51 mentioned, there are two ways it could be done: textured vegetable protein instead of meat, or vegan cheese instead of conventional cheese...

That's true, of course you can omit the meat entirely.

That seems like another good solution...

It looks...good.
Would I ever EAT one? I dunno. (Even in the days that I used to eat non-Kosher, I probably wouldn't have eaten one!)

I suppose that a kosher naco wouldn't have any meat in it, to get around the meat-and-milk ban. Probably the way that Ron would've had one, as in StD he's shown plucking the pepperoni off his pizza.

Or it can be made with Soy cheese...

Maybe Disney wanted TB to pay royalties on each one. I made one from scratch today and had it for lunch. It's really very messy to eat.

A "Supreme Burrito" is one that is made with all the trimmings, i.e. sour cream, shredded cheese, lettuce, salsa, beans, rice, and chilis. I used a Taco Bell burrito and nachos for the picture, but plan to make a naco from "scratch" some time.

The food item--dunno.
Tne name proved easier to find.
This post inspired your humble reader to research. He goodled the word βnacoβ
First thereβs a bunch of names to get through
The National Association of Charter Boat Operators
National Association of Counties,
Nebraska Association of County Officials
NACO Industries (NASDAQ: NCOIP), a manufacturer of irrigation polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipe fittings and valves for the agricultural, industrial, utility, and construction industries
"Naco", a fictional product from Kim Possible, invented by Ron Stoppable (which goes without saying.)
He struck pay dirt when he found the slang term
slang
βNaco (fmn. naca) is a pejorative word often used in Mexican Spanish to describe bad-mannered and poorly educated people. Recently, however, the word has been reclaimed by Mexican hipsters, particularly in Mexico City and in other places where the word has been popularized in fashions. A naco is usually associated with lower socio-economic classes, but could also sometimes include the nouveau-riche.β
He found the two towns, Naco, Arizona and Naco, Sonora, Mexico.

The original name is Nuestra SeΓ±ora del Rosario de Nacozari. Copper mines were discovered in 1660. It was renamed Nacozari de GarcΓa after JesΓΊs GarcΓa Corona, a railroad engineer who drove the train out of town when sparks from the locomotive caught fire on the dynamite car in 1907. The train blew up, killing him, and 12 other engineers and passerby. But the town was spared.

The word nacozari is from the Opata language. It means "abundance of nopal", which is a vegetable item, the segments of the prickly pear cactus with the spines peeled off.

The writers probably combined "nacho" and "taco" to come up with the word. In the US a taco is usually made with a small corn tortilla fried crisp, folded, and then filled with meat, cheese, etc. In Mexico the tortilla can be any size, crisp or soft, folded or rolled. I just used a burrito and filled it with chips.
Had one yesterday for brunch along with two bean burritos, preparing my stomach for a big Independence Day feast.

Regarding the origin of the word 'naco' applied to the culinary item in the 'Bueno Nacho' episode: without doubt that's how the word came to be. It would be intersting to learn if they got their idea from some real-life fast food worker or they came up with it on their own. And then in turn to see how widespread the idea has been imitated in the real world.
I got diverted in my research when I saw the name of the town. Doubtless the corporate types would like to copywrite the word for themselves had not the name existed for several centuries previous
Hope your feast was delicious. Hope you didn't suffer gaseous after-effects

I had no problems. As a digester, I would have disappointed a Borgia.

Amazing inhuman endurance. Some writers have conjectured he might've been possessed.
