So, to answer your question, I'm not actually in Cincinnati, and can't speak for their chili. I'd certainly try it, though, I love chili in all its forms and am no purist.

I'm from Texas but I'm perfectly happy with a good bowl of Texas red or New Mexico green. I can't do the Greek stuff though, it's just...not right.

I'm of the firm mindset that if it doesn't have beans, you've only got a thick stew.

I know people will claim it to be heresy, but a beanless chili is little more than wet meat.

That is some pro-click funny and greatly appreciated, thanks. :) The Virginia ham entry is dead on; I've lived in this state for almost 18 years now and don't think I've met anyone who gets excited about our ham the way, say, an upstate NYer gets wistful for real buffalo wings or snappies or Gianelli sausage. We're just known for ham because Smithfield runs the parts of the state that Philip Morris does not, best I can tell. Even my store, which prides itself on local, fresh food, gets its country ham from (gasp!) North Carolina.

drive to lynchburg and i'll show you the family that gets excited about ham (it's mine)

Who in the gently caress puts beans in chili? Chili has 5 loving ingredients: Beef. Onion. Garlic. Tomato. Chiles. Start adding poo poo past that and you've moved into carne guisada territory, and then you're really loving that up too.

The people who created it and ate it for decades (probably much, much longer) before white people got a hold of it and called those other people beaners. Beanless chili is gentrified slop.

You can never add too many things into chili.

The more things the better usually, unless it's cinnamon and allspice and whatever other bullshit they put in Cincinnati chili.

I definitely have Strong Opinions on food, I've been cooking for myself and others since Thundarr the Barbarian was on my 13" black and white tv Saturday mornings while I was making pancakes for the family before they woke up. But I've never begrudged anyone on what they want to eat. As long as I'm not paying for it, go nuts, put whatever in your chili or burn your steak then slather it in ketchup or make a whole pizza out of pineapple and mayo, life's too loving short to give a gently caress about other people's food preferences. Jeebus.

Unless they're paying customers, in which case I give 783% of the fucks. But at home? 0%.

Holy crap, I'd forgotten about that line somehow, fistbump to you. We swear like sailors at work (because this is what the BOH do) but we do work in an open kitchen that the customers can sometimes hear, so when I burn myself or gently caress something up, I've trained myself to yelling "SON OF A BISCUIT" or "SKITTLES!" if I need to reflexively curse. Gonna have to put "LORDS OF LIGHT" into the rotation, that's a good family-friendly swear.

I have a friend who unwisely got her GF's name tattooed on herself. Of course, they broke up and we were trying to figure out a good cover-up. I suggested turning SWEET ELISE into SWEET CHEESE. I don't remember what she ultimately ended up doing but SWEET CHEESE is my go-to family friendly exclamation and relatively close to Sweet Jesus! anyway.

This does not make sense when, again, aggregate indicia also indicate improvements. The belief that things are worse is false. It remains false.
Nowadays the best gatekeeping on chili is to argue over what kinds of cheese and beef (and or beans as needed) to use in it.

I'm (very slowly) working up an effortpost on food labeling and how Panera's screwing everything up for everyone that I'm going to post in the pseudoscience thread. Should I link it here?
