Speaking truth to power

Chris is right: real Chili has no beans. But I don’t call it Chili Bean Stew. I call it Chili with beans.

    Yeah, I always chuckle at “chili con carne” when it should be “chili con frijoles”.

    “Chili with beans” I have no problem with–that warns people. It just shouldn’t be called “chili” with no qualifier if it has beans in it.

  3. Chris Byrne Says:

    Please note, I also include a linke to my REAL chili recipe in the post. Life is too short for bad chili.

  4. Stormy Dragon Says:

    Chili is like BBQ: every little area of the country has their own variation on it, and they’re all completely convinced that their variation is THE ONE right way to make it.

    –From Pennsylvania Dutch Country, where real chili does have beans.

    Stormy, real chili comes from Texas.

    😛

  6. Stormy Dragon Says:

    Nu uh, it was common knowledge that it was actually invented by the Amish, whose extreme modesty prevented them from saying anything when the Texans took credit for it. ;P

  7. Phelps Says:

    Actually, in Texas, we crap with beans in it Foriegner Stew.

  8. SayUncle » An effort at peace between our people Says:

    […] You can call it chili with beans but you cannot call it chili. […]

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
