Is Chili in the summer weird?

Especially here in Florida, the seasons don't really matter; it's pretty much hot or hotter, except for a couple of cool days a year. I think chili's fabulous for rainy days, or any other days. It's just plain one of the best things there is!

No way, that is not weird at all. Chilli is great year round. hehe

We just had chili for dinner tonight! It was fantastic!

no i dont think so, my hubby has it sometimes in the summer too and yes, while its a good winter meal, its still good anytime. my father in law loves to have soup, no matter what the weather is!

Is it weird to want ice cream in the winter? No food belongs to any specific season. If it is what you want, go for it! I like chili, beef stew,& hot coffee in the summer as well as winter. I also like ice cream and cold drinks in winter. It's a matter of taste.

It's definitely not weird! I can eat chili 365 day a year. True Mexican chili is more like a stew...they don't use beans. I like it either Mexican style, or the better known Tex-Mex. I hate the Cincinnati style that has noodles in it. I have a secret ingredient that I learned from one of my Mexican friends that really rounds out the flavor. Add one chunk of unsweetened baking chocolate to a gallon pot of chili. You can't taste it, but it really mellows everything out and enhances everything. Now you've got my mouth going! I think tonight I'll make one of my favorites, arroz con pollo y mole chocolat (rice with chicken and chocolate mole sauce). It sounds weird, but it tastes great. The mole is made with poblano peppers and the chocolate tempers that way down.

I make chili that can be served hot or cold, and it's very good any time of the year! :) Good for you and here's a Chili Recipe Resource! :) http://www.chili-recipes.com/

I don't think it's weird at all. I ea what I want when I want, and that's all there is to it!

We usually fix it here in the summer too. Chili is universal in the south! We love hot and spicy foods here. It also sounds like you have a great recipe! So, no I don't think you are strange at all :) Enjoy your chili!

I don't think so. I have chili more often in colder weather, but I sometimes want chili in the summer time too. It is especially good on a hot dog with lots of shredded cheese and onions.

sweetdesign no its not weird to crave chili in the summertime I crave it every once in a while all year long. and beans are always so good for us, I love to make homemade chili,it always tastes so good but my favorite restaurant makes pretty good chili too. maybe I will stop in tomorrow and have a bowl. yummy

I like chili all year round as well. It's so delicious with fries or a burger. SO I can't blame you for wanting it during the summer. I'm not a great cook at all so I just go to the restaurant to get my chili fix. Most of the time, they don't serve it during the summer but I think taco bell does. Yummy! Happy cooking! Your recipe sounds delicious.:)

I do not think that it is really that strange at all. As a matter of fact it sounds like a great idea any time. I have been wanting to make some chili for a while but haven't gotten around to it. I know that it is hot in the summer but chili is a great dish all year round. I like mine spicy, how about you? Enjoy your meal! And by the way, chili usually tastes pretty good with a slice of bread with some butter.

I don't think so. I love chili and I have it all year round! I hope your chili turns/turned out okay! I've never had mine with onions. I'll have to make a mental note of that for next time.

I don't think it's weird, we had chili last week. I am a soup person, so I am the only person that walks into a restaurant when it's 120 outside and ask for soup! It isn't because I am cold, I just really like soup!

No its not weird. We had chilli yesterday lol. Aren't the hot spices supposed to help keep you cool?

No it is not weird to crave chili in the summer...But then again I only say that because if it is then I am weird to. Because I just mad homemade chili a week ago.

hi sweet. i don't care about the weather. if a crave for chili, then it will be chili and hot. just this noontime, we have the pork in sour soup for lunch. kids don't wanna try it but we have chili plants at the back, so i have chili in my soup. taste even better. KEEP SMILING = NEIL

kind a weird because of the weather.. usually during summer we crave for ice creams, floats, shakes everything that is cold. =) but hey our appetite doesn't choose any season. at times even during cold weather we crave for ice creams =)

Hey sweet, Not at all! Chili, taco salad. They are summer favorties. I love taco salad in the summer. It's so refreshing. Put some salsa, sour cream, chives. Oh, now I'm getting hungry and I have to make chicken cutlets for dinner! See what you did!I haven't had that in sooooo long. It isn't a winter food. I actually think quite the contrary. You really did leave me in the mood for some. I'll have to see about that next week. Meanwhile, you enjoy!
