Reply to comment by the_original_Retro in [homemade] Texas Chili by info-sponge

Since when can there not be raw ingredients in a chili?

Everyone's got their own taste, dude. Some of us like raw onion.

OP said "Texas Chili". That means something. It doesn't mean "big chunks of raw onion".

I am nowhere near an accomplished chef, but I try and cook with balance, because I have a fussy family.

I would be picking these out of my own dish and not consider it a true 'chili' if these comparative onion-bergs were served to me.

Texas Chili just means no beans or tomato sauce if I'm not mistaken.

My family would lose their minds if I put raw onion on their chili, too, but I like it.

Everybody has preferences.

You kinda endorsed my point there.

We all have individual tastes, I love buckets of hot sauce, for example.

That doesn't mean it's appealing to most. I got served this in a restaurant, I'd say WTF and send it back.

It's just badly constructed.
