About Fast foods, nachos, with cheese and jalapeno peppers
These are classic snack-bar nachos: crisp tortilla chips smothered in a processed cheese sauce and scattered with pickled jalapeño slices. The chips bring the carbohydrate and frying oil, while the cheese sauce supplies the fat, the salt and a surprising amount of calcium.
Per 100 grams they provide about 298 calories, with roughly 8.2 grams of protein, 16.7 grams of fat (around 6.9 grams saturated — the most in this batch) and 29.5 grams of carbohydrate. The cheese sauce makes them the calcium leader of this group at about 304 milligrams per 100 grams, but it also pushes sodium to roughly 851 milligrams — the highest figure in this batch. Cholesterol sits near 41 milligrams and iron around 1.2 milligrams.
Cheese nachos deliver calcium and a moreish crunch, but the combination of fried chips and processed cheese makes them dense in saturated fat and very high in salt. The jalapeños add flavor for no real calories; the portion size is what matters most, since a shared appetizer is easy to eat well past a 100-gram serving.
