I don’t know. That sounds mighty…Canadian to me.
Can we all agree that Cincinnati chili should properly be called Greek spaghetti sauce?
It’s delicious, but it is in no way chili.
Those beanless chilis look like sloppy joes to me.
I’ve had a chili three-way - it was very strange and in no way chili. I didn’t finish it.
Always beans. Need extra fiber.
My dad makes a vegetarian sweet potato and bean chili which can easily be made vegan. Even my husband, who really likes meat and isn’t a big sweet potato fan, inhaled it.
I have the Thread Games forum on mute so I would have otherwise not seen the BM thread. I find it amusing, especially since hubby recently had a colonoscopy.
Not that there’s anything wrong with that!!
I’ve helped judge two chili cook offs. IME chili is whatever you want it to be. As a judge, the only thing that matters is that it not be bland. There’s always an entry or two that are bland and I feel sorry for the people who bother entering them.
Maybe it’s not surprising, but when three judges do their first tasting of 20 entries, we unanimously agree on the 15 that we don’t need to taste again.
When I entered my one and only chili cook-off, my dish was extremely spicy (even more than I intended).
There was one woman there, who may or may not have had one too many adult beverages, who repeatedly and persistently praised my chili to anyone and everyone within earshot.
Everyone sorta rolled their eyes because she was getting annoying and it appeared that she was the only one present who actually liked it.
mmm
For those who decline to even look at the bowel movement thread: It is literally just a list of actual movie titles. There is very little commentary or creative entries. Any scatological imagery exists entirely in the mind of the beholder. That’s its entertainment value, it stimulates the viewer’s imagination. I guess some people aren’t comfortable with that.
Or we’re afraid that it would warp our minds to the point that, forever after, we’d be considering the scatalogical implications of every movie title we see.
You mean you don’t already do that?
At my company potluck, one employee had brought a pot of what was, I think, chili containing the world’s hottest pepper at then (he had only put a bit in.) I took one bite and it was just pain. No flavor, no particular taste, not even the ‘pleasant’ type of spicy hotness, just pain and pain alone.
How many servings did you have?
I tried a crazy-hot (scorpion?) pepper stout. The brewer was offering shot glasses. Most people took a tiny sip, coughed/choked, then dumped out the rest. I managed to finish my shot and eventually two more.
Horrible abdominal pain and diarrhea for the next 24 hours.
Yeah, I had a coworker who brought an extraordinarily hot chile to a potluck. He took a full pot home with him.
Good grief. Because somebody doesn’t find something funny that you find funny, you think they must not have any imagination?
I’m just one of those weird people who doesn’t derive entertainment value from imagining other people’s bowel movements.
I mean it’s really just because I think poop is gross. I have a pretty strong disgust response for bodily functions. I can see how someone who did not have that would find it funny.
Poop IS gross.
But gross is funny.
Or, your imagination is way more active than mine.
I see the issue as having too much imagination, not too little.
Ah. Here’s where we differ.
Real poop is gross. Imagined poop is funny.
