What is one of the snacks you order when you go to a pub or Mexican restaurant? Nachos! You can’t go wrong with nachos and those delicious toppings. And you want to celebrate with a plate full of nachos on October 21, because that is when International Nacho Day takes place. The history of International Nacho Day revolves around a chef named Ignacio Anaya, who in 1943 worked at the Old Victory Club in Piedras Negras, near a military base.
And since military women were shopping and it was late, and they were hungry because other restaurants were closed, they went to the Old Victory Club, which was about to close. All Ignacio Anaya could find were tortilla chips with grated cheese to offer them. And so the day came about, because nacho was short for Ignacio. So let’s talk about what type of nachos are ideal for you, based on your zodiac sign.

Virgo – Healthy (Keto) Nachos
Virgo, you are very health conscious and when you eat nachos you want to make the healthiest options for you. You either make keto nachos. You get a low-carb bag of tortilla chips and add meat, cheese, and lots of veggies to your plate of nachos.
Or, if you get regular chips, use just a few and fill your nacho plate with lean ground chicken or beef and veggies. However you make your nachos, focus on health.
Libra – Pizza Nachos
Libra, you are the one who needs balance and peace, and you have difficulty making decisions. That’s because you’d have a hard time choosing if someone presented you with two dinner options: pizza or nachos, and you wouldn’t know what to choose.
That’s why you’d love the idea of pizza nachos so you can have both without having to choose between one or the other. Therefore, this nacho dish gives you the balance of enjoying two dishes in one, between the typical pizza and nacho toppings.
Scorpio – Sriracha Beef Nachos
Scorpio, you are intense and passionate and are known to enjoy spicy dishes. Therefore, if you like a plate of nachos, it should be spicy. That’s why you’ll love the sriracha beef nacho platter. You would add other spices to the nacho dish, sriracha sauce, and large slices of beef on the tortilla chips.
And if you really want to show off your Scorpio side, put the sriracha sauce in the dish instead of on the nachos when you invite guests, because you like to be mysterious. That will shock them.
Sagittarius – Breakfast Nachos
Sagittarius, you are optimistic and adventurous, and if you are going to enjoy a plate of nachos, breakfast nachos are the ideal choice. You are ready to start your day, regardless of the time, and this sign also radiates an optimistic atmosphere.

Aquarius – Tater Tot Nachos
Aquarius, you do your thing and don’t want to be like everyone else. You march to your drummer, so when you make nachos, you don’t use tortilla chips like everyone else. You use tater tots instead and add the same toppings as typical nachos, such as cheese, jalapeno peppers, beef, black olives, salsa, and so on. But instead of grabbing some cheesy goodness with a tortilla chip, you grab a fork and a tater tot next to it because you want to be different.
Fish – Seafood nachos
Pisces, you are a dreamer and known for being artsy, but since the fish represents your zodiac sign, seafood nachos are the ideal type of nachos for you.
