pro-tip: there's no such thing as an authentic or inauthentic recipe. food, like language, reflects generations of folks who nurture it and evolve it over time. except cincinnati chili wth is that abomination

I am biased but I gotta say New Mexico remains undefeated at this because we just put green chile in or on everything and it works out at least 95% of the time

There is definitely inauthentic food that reflects very little nurturing and evolution but rather a cynical desire to cash in on a trend without any understanding of what you’re making or selling

I agree to an extent. I think everyone can (and should) experiment with food. But I also think that if you want to publicly showcase a recipe and you claim it is authentic then you should deliver just that…

Love Cincinnati chili. It's like Greek American Detroit Coney Island food - noodles, chili, beans, meat, onions, cheese. Not much different from goulash I grew up with.

Counter argument: Inauthentic Recipes are recipes made by members of one group, who knowingly and falsely claiming it to be from another group, and for the sole purpose of profit. i.e. Detroit-Style Pizza is Authentic, The Mexican Pizza from Taco Bell is not.

I am an outlier in so many ways... but my love of Cincy chili is probably one of the main ones.
Pro Tip: DO NOT BOTHER WITH SKYLINE. It's a bad version of the art form. Seek out a local restaurant, you'll get a better product.

Cincinnati chili is why I still can't make chili without cinnamon and cocoa to add depth. I skip the raw onions, but pasta (maybe not spaghetti) & shredded cheddar are still great. But I have a stockpile of odd recipes, like Carolina Lowlands gumbo, which is nothing at all like NOLA gumbo.

The idea of chili over spaghetti is amazing, I'm not sure how they fucked it up with 'lets put cinnamon in it too!' but whatever. That being said, Cincinnati redeems itself with goetta, which is amazing.
