got up to texas & saw their no-bean chili
then clicked on how to make it
http://www.thrillist.com/eat/nation/how-to-make-perfect-chili-tim-love-thrillist-nation

the only time i'd ever heard of that was on the big bang theory

sheldon (who is from texas) asks priya if the chili she made has beans in it, she says yes, and he says it's not real chili--real chili doesn't have beans. (i thought he said that because his character is so quirky he just doesn't like beans and that was how his mom made it for him. lol--turns out that is how the state of texas makes it!)
