I’m making some very basic chili. I have a can of black beans thats near expiry. Will adding it to my chili ruin it? It would be a 2:1 ratio of kidney beans to black beans.

      You know the difference between a garbanzo bean and a chickpea?

      !can’t pay fifty for a garbanzo to bean on my face!<

      Jokes aside, yes to both, though the jelly bean would be flavor specific like any oddity would.

      People do add sweet things to chill, and it works rather well. This includes things that are within your typical jellybean flavor range. Pretty much any jelly would be fine in small amounts (and pepper jelly really is one of those “secret” ingredients that folks love to pretend isn’t obvious). When that’s the case, a standard jellybean is going to be okay in similarly small amounts. I’m dubious that licorice ones would work, but I have been exposed to chili with anise before, and it wasn’t horrible.

      I definitely wouldn’t want bubblegum flavored jellybeans in my chili, but the rest? Eh, I’d be down to try them.

        heeeeeeyyyyy… was that an andrew dice clay bit? I remember hearing that in the 80s at some point.

        I can’t stand sweet/savory combos, I’m weird like that, so yeah, there’s probably some brave soul at out there with a witches brew of jellybelly chilli just stirring away…
