Why are some people so afraid of beans? Why are 4,700 people agreeing that just eating rice is a good tip? Thousands of years of civilization and we have circled all the way back to poor people surviving on meager rice rations.

They just… dump the canned beans in straight from the can, starch goo and all.
It’s common in the area of the Midwest I was in for people to argue over if beans even belonged in chili
The bean goo is a wonderful thickening agent and I’m here to get my full money’s worth out of that can!
No! You have to simmer the chili until it thickens! Adding thickener just means the flavor is less concentrated.
Porque no los dos? More farts=more better.
Maybe if you’re eating it by scooping the chili up with corn chips. Maybe as a topping?
Now you’re thinking with bean goo. The starch is good for emulsifying cheese too, so you can make a chili queso dip!
The problem with the church chili is they don’t give you any corn chips. You get a plastic spoon.
