The Count said:In my defense I no longer even stock kidney beans in my pantry. So at least they are pintos, lol.
As a fellow Texan.
I can't argue against that.
Pinto beans.
A pot of pintos is true Texas comfort food.
And yet.
When I was a kid growing up in the Rio Grand Valley I knew some other kids.
And a small bowl of cold pinto beans would be their breakfast.
And their lunch.
Supper?
My family lived off of FR2556 alongst the Arroyo Colorado.
There was a another family that lived about a mile away on Orange Grove Road.
Kids didn't have shoes and I don't remember them ever coming to school.
But that was a long time ago.
I don't reckon those folks would be bitchin' on the interwebz.
About beans in their chili.
And yet.
I am here.
