If you're a chili purist, I'd recommend not ordering chili in Cincinnati. Way back when, some Greek guy wanted to sell Greek meat sauce to a bunch of Germans, but he wasn't gaining any traction - because what sausage loving German wants Greek meat water.
He then had the bright idea of renaming it 'chili,' and an unholy abomination was concieved that day, it threatened to plunge all of existence into the void...actually if you've ever had italian (the tomato based) meat sauce on spaghetti, it's kinda like that, just with a handful of cinnamon and neon yellow shredded cheese...because, why not. Folks in Cincinnati seem to like it though, so much so they sell it in cans in the grocery stores
I'm Texan, it's a whole thing down here. Those of you calling it meat soup without beans, don't know how to make chili. Chile is thick and hearty.
