Here is the best thing you can do with canned chili:

Mix a can of chili with velveeta cheese (however much you want)
Heat and stir in a saucepan or just nuke it
Dip tortilla chips/fritos in it

thats the best. i have those little snack bags of fritos, crunch the bag, open it up, and pour the crushed up fritos in the chili. now thats good eating. wendy's does have good chili, im just worried by the fact that my order is ready before i pull up to the drive-thru window, and no one else is in the line. but if you eat the chili, get an order of fries also and put some into the chili. make sure you get the cheese on top. thats all i get from wendy's. square hamburgers are just plain wrong.

I like using Frito Lays Scoops

yep, same

tim hortons is probably the same as wendy's chili since its the same company.

real chili does NOT have bell peppers in it.

All this talk of chilli is making me hungry for some, unfortunately I am one of the ones who doesn't like wendy's chilli. Home made is the way to go, in place of it I also like good ol' Wolf-Brand chilli.

Yup, it's easy to make and the homemade is WAY tastier, just taste it while you make it so you know how much spices you should add...

It's lunchtime here, i think i am going to micro some chili right now...
