King Fest Chili/Soup Cook-Off heats up in McFarland
MCFARLAND — Chili, one of America’s most popular soups, has a long and rich history. The number and variety of recipes grows daily.
Arguments lasting decades concerning the addition of meat to chili continue to rage without resolution and stories abound regarding its origins.
Stories about origins
Enthusiasts of chili say one possible though far-fetched starting point comes from Sister Mary of Agreda, a Spanish nun in the early 1600s who never left her convent yet had out-of-body experiences in which her spirit was transported across the Atlantic to preach Christianity to the Indians.
