This article has issues.
Cincinnati Chili is <almost never> served or eaten by the bowl.
change to
Cincinnati Chili is <seldom> served or eaten by the bowl.
Grammar: “Almost never” is logically incoherent. Never is a superlative and must stand alone.
Or remove statement completely.
Factual: All the chili parlors offer bowls of Cincinnati Chili on their standard menus for people who are diabetic or gluten intolerant of spaghetti or hot dog buns. Skyline calls theirs the “Loaded Chili Bowl”. Empress calls it “Bowl of Chili” Dixie calls it “Chili Plain”. (See menu links below). I always order a bowl of chili with onions and cheese when I visit Skyline or Gold Star as an add on to my Coney order.

The paragraph under section “Ways” that covers standalone chili is factually incorrect and it’s characterization of people who order it as “ridiculous“ is insullting to those of us who enjoy a bowl of Cincinnati Chili. This is the personal opinion of one food writer and should be deleted.
It should be explicitly pointed out in the article that Cincinnati Chili does not incorporate beans in the recipe. Beans are an add on to the finished dish like cheese and onion. The cheese should be characterized as finely shredded sharp cheddar.
Factual: Chocolate is not an ingredient in Cincinnati Chili. It has been used in some home grown recipes which had been fabricated in an attempt to imitate the dish. Source: ingredients lists on retail packages of mix and prepared product.
There are numerous claims in this article for which citations are required, like Cincinnati Chili is Cincinnati’s best known regional food. 68.49.48.206 (talk) 14:57, 25 November 2022 (UTC)

CURRENT: While served in many local restaurants, it is most often associated with the over 250 independent and chain "chili parlors" (restaurants specializing in Cincinnati chili) found throughout greater Cincinnati with franchise locations throughout Ohio and in Kentucky, Indiana, Florida, and the Middle East. The dish is the Cincinnati area's best-known regional food.

In 1985, one of the founders of Gold Star Chili, Fahid Daoud, returned to Jordan, where he opened his own parlor, called Chili House.[16] Outside of Jordan, Chili House as of 2020 had locations in Iran, Iraq, Libya, Oman, Palestine, Turkey and Qatar.[17].
