An observation of Wolfe chili

[Faulkner]

I never heard of Wolfe's. I atte my last can of Hormel chili about 25 years ago. One day I was heating a pan of Hormel on the stove, when I noticed my shepherd/husky Misty sitting tall and proud with her ears up and a good-sized "gift" next to her on the floor. Ordinarily she would be ashamed of such a thing, but not today.

I took a whiff of her leaving, then went over to the stove to smell the chili. Let's just say it would be a kindness to say it smelled like dogfood. Misty obviously took a whiff and took it as permission to drop the big one.

The last time I ate Hormel chili was at some unremembered time before that, because that can went in the garbage. I wouldn't feed it to my dog.

That right there is funny.

Most canned chili cannot ever compare to home made.

I have found that the Trader Joe's Turkey Chili tastes decent and I keep a couple of cans on hand.

If I really want a treat I pour it over a baked potato with sour cream
and some extra cheese.

I only keep canned chili on hand for those end of world scenarios. Of course, at that point I'd probably eat canned dog food if it came to it.

I would rather have a can of tamales.

How can you put beans in it and still call it chili ?
Here in Houston, James Coney Island has just about the best commercial Chili I have ever tasted.

Home made chili is the best, and is prefered for eating straight as Chili.

I do buy canned "chili-like product" primarily as ingreadent to the mixed with other thing , and don't want to be othered to cook everything from scratch. I do understand the one of several purist viewpoint about chili not having beans , but I do prefer my chili-like canned product with them.

I will occasionally get the Wofle when it is $1 at the dollar store, but man is it greasy compared to Hormells.

I haven't tested current dogs with canned chili-like product , but all the prevous dogs would eat anything vaguely resembling food , or any ingreadent that might be used to make food.

And the articles in Playboy are a lot better than the food at Hooters.

I really don't think Hooters has anything to offer but hooters.
NOW---Twin Peaks is a different story.

Not Wolf Brand Chili... but another canned meat blast from the past:

It's been over 40 years since I put this in my mouth but I can't imagine doing it again. I think that the secret then was putting enough yellow mustard on the bread or crackers to kill the taste.

Beans, no beans... me no care.
Since the wife has been making her own with kidney and naval that's what I've been having.

Anymore, chili without beans may as well be spaghetti GRAVY !

 

[Salty RI]

Actually, its not bad at all if you hollow out a bellpepper,fill it full of potted meat-then roast in the oven for about a half hour.

 

[THE PILGRIM]

Potted meat? If that's not the bottom of the bottom, I don't know what is.
And I have eaten a bunch of GI canned food including survival kit rations.
I knew a dude who worked in a meat processing plant.
He said if you saw what went into the 'processed' meats you would not eat any of them. Parts is parts.
I'm just glad I never worked there!
One state and only one state has food and meat standards which exceed the Fed requirements. You'll see it mentioned on a lot of processed food.
Who?

 

[Faulkner]

Potted Meat ingredients: Beef tripe, mechanically separated chicken, beef hearts, partially defatted cooked beef fatty tissue, meat broth, vinegar, salt, flavoring, sugar, and sodium nitrite.

Since the thread about canned tamales (I think by Ringo), I thought we had disabused anyone of such shenanigan's.

I eat deviled ham two or three times a month. It is quite tasty, but can be improved by a dash of Louisianan Hot Sauce. Spam is another of my favorite meats. Both are good stuff.
