The 6th of November is Nachos Day.
Nachos were invented in Mexico, just across the border with Texas in a Mexican town called Piedras Negras. They are actually named after the cook who invented them.
For the full story, see the entry on nachos.
Pro tip: Nachos is not pronounced with the “a” as in “apple”, but rather like “gnaw – chose.”
