Kirk: "Spock, are you a fan of chili?"
Spock: "It depends on the recipe, Captain."
Kirk: "Recipe? How many can there be? It's just chili!"
Spock: "Unofficially Captain, on the planet Earth there are eight-thousand four-hundred and twenty-six."
Kirk: "Sorry I asked. Bones?"
McCoy: "Dammit Jim, I'm a Georgia doctor. Not a Texas chili connoisseur !"
Kirk: "Scotty, are you there?"
Scotty: "Yes, Captain. I love chili, as long as I can wash it down with a good scotch."
Kirk: "No, Mr. Scott. I just wanted you to beam us up."
Scotty: "Can do, Captain."

I never know if you're quoting actual dialogue or just making it up! Is that really script from an episode? Hilarious! (I'd post a laughing face but haven't figured out how to do that since they messed up, I mean changed, the website format.

If you look at the top of this space we write in, there are some symbols there. One of the symbols is a smiley face. If you click on that, several other emojis appear. There are lots of them if you scroll down that menu.
 
No, not really familiar with that. But I saw someone from the Appalachian mountains on tv, they made mash from cornbread and then turned that into moonshine. Very educational. :)

I think the hillbillies probably used cornmeal - not cornbread - to make corn mash to turn into moonshine. But you never know what will come crawling out of the Appalachian Mountains. My brother, a retired engineer, lives in West Virginia. He has told me some of the wildest, weirdest stories about people and things he has encountered in that state.

Thank you for the emoji instructions. I found it! :)

They actually used cornbread, they baked cornbread and then made mash with it. It was an experiment, a guy wanted moonshine that tasted like his mothers cornbread because that was the best cornbread in the US. :) And it worked, according to him.
 
Love cornbread. Just made cornbread waffles using Jiffy box however l have cooked lots of times with cornmeal. Even polenta can have chili on top of it.
 
Homemade chili and cornbread is the bomb.

Especially with shredded cheddar cheese and sour cream.

How am I supposed to lose weight if I keep making myself hungry like this?

He may start a new fad - cornbread moonshine. It might even taste good!

Make a taco salad with the chili. At least you'll feel virtuous for eating salad and it's like eating a balanced meal.

Put chopped lettuce in a deep bowl.
Crumble a big handful of corn tortilla chips (or cornbread) on top of the lettuce.
Put 1 or 2 cups of steaming hot chili on top of the chips.
Put cheese, sour cream, avocado slices, jalapenos, radish slices, raw chopped onion, or whatever you like on top.
 
Great idea. If you have time, take corn tortillas place oven on cookie sheet after spraying them with cooking spray and then when crunchy, break into chips, way lower in calories then store bought. But restaurant style is really good to eat with sasla. Chili taco salad is a great meal. Pour a little jalapeño ranch on salad even. Which reminds, l need need need jalapeños, only one left.

Moonshine... the one beverage on earth that literally knocks me to the floor. I've tried it once, and barely remember anything but a series of falls, followed by a long nap.

I've made beer from bread before. Kvass.

It was common when I was a teenager and that stuff knocked me out of my shoes and on my butt. And people used to mix it with orange juice, that's just a terrible mix. :fearscream:

Eww I wouldn't cut it with anything but water. That must have been a "taste-sensation".
 
My friends made a very potent jungle juice before (prison-style liquor from old fruit fermented in a plastic bag). That was stronger than Jaeger.

BTW I'm not much of a drinker at all. Just talking about prior experience :)
