From the January 1907 issue of “What To Eat”
I shall not entertain any more arguments. This is well over 113 years of history that cannot simply be ignored.
Let this be the silliest In Memoriam to JD Kinman: bean-less Chili aficionado, author and Gentleman among many other virtues.
“What To Eat” is a Chicago publication. I guess that is better than New York City recipes, but… I’m not making fake Chicago chili.
It is all in good jest 🙂
Not convinced. That is a “may” statement in there concerning the beans. Had it been a ‘shall’ or a ‘must’ you may have found your proof.
At best, you have demonstrated it is optional.
You say it is in jest, but YOU are the one that will spend the centuries of contrition in chili Pergatory, Santa.
I can cast a smell.
Note- pork sausage and black beans are a very interesting, and tasty variation on the traditional chili.
All I know is that if you plop that $#¡+ on top of a hotdog and dare to refer to your creation as a Coney, I will hurt you.
Heathens! I also note the “New York” stamp on the article. Therefore, it has no authority when it comes to chile recipes. And tomatoes? Come on! That’s a recipe for some kind of weird spaghetti sauce, not chile.
There is no such thing as “settled science” — it’s a trope used by the “global warming” crowd.
