Parachuting Nachos: The Future We Deserve

In 1930, Elm Farm Ollie, the first cow to ever fly in an airplane, made history not just by soaring through the sky, but by being milked mid-flight and having her dairy products parachuted down to people below. That’s right—ninety-four years ago, airborne snack delivery was already happening.

Which begs the question: WHERE ARE OUR AIR-DROPPED NACHOS?!?

We live in an age of drones, AI, and same-day shipping, yet if you want nachos, you still have to physically go get them or, at best, wait for some poor delivery driver to navigate traffic while your chips slowly lose their crunch. Meanwhile, in 1930, people were standing in a field, catching fresh dairy products FROM THE SKY.

This is a failure of modern innovation. If we can create robotic pizza ovens and sushi conveyor belts, why hasn’t some genius developed a drone-based queso delivery system? Imagine it—your phone buzzes, and suddenly, from above, a small, gracefully descending nacho care package lands right in your hands. Fresh, hot, perfectly balanced. No middleman. No tragic cheese coagulation. Just perfect nachos, delivered from the heavens.

Elm Farm Ollie proved that food parachuting technology was viable. It’s time we, as a society, demand that same level of dedication for nacho logistics. Until then, we remain technologically inferior to a 1930s publicity stunt.
