At a Perkins, I got chili with all the fixings: cheese, raw onions, and sour cream. I added all of it. I took a bite and almost broke a tooth. At first, I thought there were stones in it, but the beans were rock hard.

@Levenrack Over cooking beans can do that.

@NativePortlander1970 Yeah, I'm pretty sure that was it. It was scrapings on the sides of the kettle, or it sat under a heat lamp forever. Unfortunately, it kept me from ordering chili or soup from a restaurant. Well except for Zuppa Toscana from Olive Garden. Wild horses couldn't drag me away from that. 😉

@Levenrack The kind of thing that gets restaurants closed down if served to an undercover health department inspector. I once got a bread outlet shut down for selling expired products.

@NativePortlander1970 Yes. Yes indeed.
