Wasn't really a competition, just for illustrating a point. I've only passed through Texas for a layover, but honestly, Texas as a state has zero appeal to me. I'd rather just go to Mexico for better versions of pretty much anything in Texas that's remotely interesting to me, while avoiding a fair chunk of the things that make Texas so miserable a prospect to me in the first place.

Besides, Texans might have improved upon nachos at some point, but claiming you have a superior version doesn't invalidate that nachos have already been widely accepted as a Tex-Mex dish. "Nachos are a Tex-Mex dish" is the opening to the wiki article on them, with 8 different citations to back up that claim.
