Honestly for a quick cheese sauce for nachos I don't think you can beat Velveeta. It doesn't get easier, and I prefer the flavor of American cheese for things like that.

If you like Velveeta I guess. I can't stand it and prefer to use whatever melty cheese I have on hand.

I always have cream and some kind of melty cheese. Buying Velveeta would be a specific purchase, for me, rather than hmm what can I make with what I have.

Melt together some velveeta and a salsa for a pretty good cheese dip
It's a bit heavy for my liking, but add some breakfast sausage and sour cream and you have basically every party queso.
I knew somebody who called that "Barf dip". presumably for what it looked like, not tasted like.
Velveta on its own is pretty rough (imo), but if you start adding anything to it, it helps a lot. Like salsa is the easy one.
