Note: Originally published February 11, 2014. Several recent threads in a foodie group inspired me to re-post this. Seriously, a group made up of foodies. Clearly 80-90% of all comments indicated that most of the people had no clue what is chili. Most were describing a stew because they put beans and other junk in it. A few really clueless individuals called real chili sloppy Joes. Clearly, they have never either. There were the hopeless northerners who called it Coney sauce. Then there was the post where someone was supposedly competing in a Terlingua qualifying event. I seriously doubt they will be successful. The person was shocked by rule #3 prohibiting beans, pasta or other junk. Who attempts to go to Terlingua and not understand chili NEVER contains beans. However, the most amusing comment was the dude, who, from his comment, must be an awful cook. His comment was that beans are what gives it flavor. The name of the dish is chili, meaning peppers. If your chili has no flavor, you failed. Oh, I forgot the chic who thought Wendy's invited chili. I know, hilarious.
