Discovery Nachos kit Review

Overall Rating

The only good point about buying this product is that you are putting money into the economy.

The nachos crisps in the box were all broken and the amount of nachos included in the pack was minimal at best.

First and foremost, I'm a firm believer in quality rather than quantity. I expected this pack to contain a healthy amount of nachos and 2 salsa dips, suitable for a light snack to share with a loved one. (simply add cheese and jalapeno chillies, the pack proudly boasts)
My £2.89p investment had bought me a cardboard box with around 50g of broken nachos crisps, 1 small packet of salsa dip and a tin of re-fried beans. The content of the pack did not even merit the small effort it would have taken me to prepare or even warrant wasting valuable fossil fuel in the cooking of this product.
The pack was bought from Morrison's (who in no way do I hold responsible for my up-most disgust) in my opinion the crisps can't have been broken in transit as the box was in good condition and I don't think somebody opened the box, ate half of the content and then went to the trouble of sealing the plastic pack and repairing the box in is contained in.
In future i will try El Paso nachos kit, or better still simply buy all the ingredients and make my own Nachos, this way i have total control of quality and quantity, and not rely upon the "convenience" of buying the bulk of the ingredients in a box. I could even invite some friends over and share my nachos and have good old laugh about the best way to completely waste £2.89.
I urge anybody contemplating purchasing this product not to, if you enjoy giving money away, then i would recommend you sponsor an animal or give the money to help build a school for children in a third world country, and give this particular product a miss. Thanks for reading guys.

  I was rather impressed with this review, and I thought that I must include my comments on how to waste £2.89p. Anyway, I'm quite sure that with £2, it is quite possible to buy at least a litre bottle of electric white cider and a tabloid newspaper (lets say 'The Sun' for example). I cannot think of anything more pointless to do with life than to sit and drink a bottle of cheap plonk whilst reading utter garbage.

  Thanks Lee. I think I'll stick to making delicious Nachos myself. I have my own recipe which incorporates Chicken, (mild) salsa, cheese and crispy shredded iceberg lettuce. These 'convenient foods' really are something of a swindle aren't they?
