For the record, I don't agree with that spicy turkey chili thing either. If it has turkey, it's not chili LOL.

This is the Chili Appreciation Society International Link. If you click on recipes, it will show you that the winners for the past 20 years did NOT put beans in their chili. Because REAL chili does NOT have beans!!! YEEEESSSHHHH...

http://www.texascooking.com/features/oct2001chiliperformance.htm

Food Prejudice, Preference and Performance
by John Raven, Ph. B.
Most often heard here in Texas is "If you know beans about chili, you know chili ain't got no beans". It is a near hanging offense to serve up chili with beans in it down here in the Lone Star State, although you can skirt the issue by calling the dish "chili beans". I have read hundreds of chili recipes and about 75 percent of them call for beans of one kind or another.


Final score: beans win!

Ok, Real Chili is just a name like Texas Toast.

Normal chili has beans.

this cracked me up...from wikianswers.com

Does chili have beans?
Chili does not have beans. If it does have beans, please do not call it Chili. Call it Spicy Beef Stew or whatever else but do not call it chili. If you want to argue with me then I would suggest that you visit the ICS webpage. (International Chili Society)
Traditional Red Chili is defined by: any kind of meat or combination of meats,cooked with red chili peppers, various spices and other ingredients, with the exception of BEANS and PASTA which are strictly forbidden.
Chili Verde is defined by: any kind of meat or combination of meats, cooked with green chili peppers, various spices and other ingredients, with the exception of BEANS and PASTA which are strictly forbidden.

Chili most definitely has beans if you are a commie from North Carolina or Washington.




i think the International Chili Society should have the final say...
just sayin'

Okay, this is the way it is. I live in Louisiana and I eat red beans and sausage with rice; white beans and rice with a fried pork chop... yummy stuff.

But beans in chili is just nasty!

Well, appending Loosiana onto Texas in endorsing the no-beans thing is just making it Texas-lite.

<races out like a banned, scalded wombat with a good chili bean fart in the making>
