>>935432What I said is true though. Most professional chili cook-offs, the ones where actual prizes are awarded, will not accept entries that have beans. Some people were butthurt about this, so in a similar manner to creation of the special Olympics or women's basketball, they created chili competitions that allowed beans. In fact, I think it's still punishable by death in Texas to put beans in chili and you can even serve a life sentence for requesting it.
