    Today you learned! It’s always a wonderful feeling to learn new things!

    Chocolate, cocoa, and cinnamon are flavorings and spices. Those are allowed in Chile. Chili is meat, tomato, onion, and spices. And yes, you can use chili as a base for a nice veggie stew with the addition of beans or q lot of other veggies!

    Cheers!

      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.
