- THE HISTORY OF CHILI: The exact origin of chili is still shrouded in mystery. Some people believe it was originated by chuckwagon cooks who regularly prepared stew for the cowpokes of the Southwest. Possibly, one of these cooks ran out of black pepper and in his search for a substitute, he came across some red chile peppers that were common among the Indians and Mexicans in the territory which is now west Texas. The Texas-style chili includes only meat, chili peppers, and spices. However, which is just a jumping off place for the rest of us non-Texans who routinely added onions and tomatores and beans and other original spices and ingedients. Popular chile toppings include a dollop of lowfat sour cream (to help tame the hotter versions), minced onions, grated Cheddar or possibly Jack cheese, crrackers and tortilla chips.
