    Oooh sorry that’s incorrect. No I think you’ve confused “Chili” and “Chili con carne”. Chili doesn’t have meat, and if you add it then you have “Chill con carne” (con carne = with meat)

    We have to be ridiculously gatekeepy and precise in our words, of course.

      Oof, cringe af, bro. Don’t be that person.

      Everything about your comment is incorrect.

      Chile con carne is the Mexican dish you are referencing. Chili is a beef dish that originated in Texas and does not contain beans or other starchy vegetables. Chili con carne isn’t a thing. You are confusing two similar things.
