  Chili didn’t even have meat to begin with, hence chili con carne. Black beans are more authentic

  Any Texan will tell you if it has beans it’s not actually Chili

  I’m a Texan and I’ve always found posturing like that to be a little silly. Like people who make a huge deal about how little vermouth they think goes into a martini.

    Written half in jest, to be honest. I used to be anti-bean, but I’ve grown to like the difference in texture. But there’s a lot of “get a rope” purists around here with regards to beans in chili.
