Should have just named it "Loss"

I'm honestly more interested in the construction, "a 5-layer nachos." I'm sure people say that, and I'm not calling it an error, it just sounds odd to me. I'd personally say "an order of 5-layer nachos," or "some 5-layer nachos" if I wanted to sound a bit more casual. I always consider "nachos" plural. Interestingly enough, though, judging from the Wiki article on nachos, their name is actually derived from a diminutive form of the name of their inventor, and they only date back to the 1940s, so I suppose the usage of "nachos" is still somewhat up for debate.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was a back formation from the possessive, as it passed into Spanish from English. According to the story, Americans were the first to ever order them, bu the man who served them was Mexican. Nacho's chips became just "Nachos". Nacho as a back-formed singular really wouldn't exist.

Ohmigawd! This happened to ME, too!!

I was always getting them and one day my dad went to get taco bell and "lol, no 5-layer nachos. but you can get the now-more-expensive 3-layer nachos and pay extra for two more layers!"

D:< Which he did, but I haven't asked for that again since then! So unfair!!

._. those were such yummy nachos, dude.

But I'm a Grilled Stuft Burrito kinda guy. I don't think the Bell will screw me over just yet. If you're that nutty for Taco Bell, you could drink vodka and Mountain Dew Baja Blast instead of rum.

I used to love the chili cheese burritos and they stopped carrying it. Haven't even brought it back as a special, short time thing.
