Unstuckers get restless and demand a conclusion to this saga.
I attempt to put them off by making a Trump-like claim of “just a few weeks”.
Month’s almost up, spidercrab. When is this going to happen?
Answer
Am I worried? A little. After all, fellow Ohio resident Trolly tried to warn me:
But as the card says,
Today was the day I entered Skyline Chili, and Skyline Chili entered me.
For those of you who haven’t had the pleasure, here’s the menu:
I had $25 to burn and since I haven’t yet reached suicide-levels of self hatred, I planned to stretch it out over a couple of visits. Today I went with two items:
Back at home:
The unveiling:
And?
The verdict
This was not bad! The mustard and onions added a nice flavor to the chili cheese dog, and the steamed bun ensured that neither the hot dog nor the chili were too overpowering.
This was a relatively small item (only 350 calories per the menu), and it makes for a good snack. Would buy again.
Next up, the Coney Bowl. The unveiling:
And the taste?
The Verdict
There’s no other way to say this - it was really gross. Hot dogs, on their own, are not great. This chili, on its own, is very bad. The congealed cheese was the MVP of the dish, but I can’t emphasize enough how low that bar was. The combination was a trifecta from hell.
I would never purchase this item again. I ate it more than 7 hours ago, didn’t eat anything for dinner, and I still feel this clump of garbage in my stomach. Trying to address the distress with a drink:
But it’s not really helping. I suspect I’m going to be cursing @NhlNut over the next 12 hours.
In any event,
The good news is that I’ve still got $15 of the original $25 left. Can’t wait for part 2.
