11. Thou shalt not put beans in chili!

This has been an on going debate.  I'd never make it in TX. I always put beans of some sort in my chili -- it gives it the extra 'umph' in my opinion.  To bean or not to bean???  If you're from TX -- I've learned it's a no-no.

Whether you fall in the beans or no beans camp, chili is one of the most satisfying ways to feed a hungry crowd. Especially when served with a hunk of cornbread on the side. Or is it Saltine crackers? That's a debate for another day…

....So cornbread or crackers?

I do both.  Oyster crackers inside the chili and cornbread on the side.

#13 should be mandated in every state.  But just males?  I'd say every male AND female...
