Cincinnati chili has one of the biggest disconnects between looks and taste in food. It looks like absolute trash. It's a meal you would assume a hobo made from random dumpster dives. Sometimes they show a big plate of it during a national sports broadcast that's in Cincinnati, and I've seen people leave the room because it literally makes them nauseous. But damn if it isn't shockingly tasty, filling, and satisfying. Something about the cinnamon and beans, plus spaghetti underneath just clicks, and it's rare to find someone who generally doesn't like it when they give it a chance. It's a weird food.

Funny I had n eee ver heard of this. But I thought to myself that’s a really good idea. (I like chili, I like spaghetti, so why not.) but I’m like damn that picture makes it look awful.

I would 100% eat this without beans.

Before anyone decides to come at me, I am autistic and the texture of most beans make me want to puke.

No need to make excuses, beans suck!

Yeah but people get pissy about chili.
