Neither Snow Nor Rain Nor a Lack of Nachos

Neither snow nor rain nor soul-crushing junk mail will keep the mail carriers from their appointed rounds—but can they handle the ultimate nacho challenge? Today, on National Thank a Mail Carrier Day, we honor those dedicated heroes who trudge through terrible weather just to bring us bills and suspiciously heavy "Amazon packages" (it’s totally not another kitchen gadget you don’t need). And how do we celebrate? With a nacho platter as bold and relentless as they are.

Introducing Rain, Sleet, or Melted Cheese Nachos, a dish that laughs in the face of adversity. First, we start with unbreakable tortilla chips—the kind that can take a full cheese assault without collapsing into sadness. Next, we layer on spiced-to-perfection chorizo, bringing the kind of heat that makes snowstorms think twice. But the real star? A smoky, molten cheese cascade that wraps around every chip like a puffy mail carrier coat in a winter blizzard. Add in some tangy crema impersonator, fresh cilantro, and pickled jalapeños, and you’ve got a plate that refuses to be delayed, no matter the conditions.

The result? A nacho experience that, much like your mail carrier, does not take days off. So instead of leaving out some boring cookies today, do the right thing—set out a plate of nachos and let them experience true gratitude. Trust us, they deserve it.
