About Fast foods, nachos, with cheese

Cheese nachos are crisp tortilla chips smothered in a warm, processed cheese sauce — a classic snack-bar and movie-theater indulgence built for sharing. Simple and salty, they're more treat than meal.

Per 100 grams they carry about 306 calories, on the higher end of this group, with roughly 16.8 grams of fat from the fried chips and cheese sauce and about 32.2 grams of carbohydrate. Protein is modest at around 8.1 grams. Sodium is high at around 722 milligrams per 100 grams — the chips and cheese sauce are both salty — with about 16 milligrams of cholesterol.

Plain cheese nachos are essentially fried chips plus a salty, processed cheese sauce, so they're best treated as an occasional shared snack rather than a meal. Loaded versions with beans, lean meat, salsa and fresh vegetables add some protein and fiber and stretch a smaller chip portion further; pairing nachos with water rather than a sugary drink also helps.
