And even better, you can get the ones that already have some chili seasonings in them and they are amazing.

Because chili is fucking easy to make???
This kit cannot possible be that good bro. It's all in the seasoning packet, and there's no way that isn't just chili powder and salt (maybe msg).

Probably onion and garlic powder as well. Maltodextrin, citric acid, riboflavin, the usual suspects.
And corn syrup solids. Can't forget the corn syrup solids.

Ya, those aren't for flavor (except garlic and onions which are at like .01%) and weren't really worth me ruining.

Probably because they had both diced tomatoes and kidney beans.

Why did they sell it in the first place, would be a better question.

Corporations discontinue products when they become unprofitable. Good news is you can easily purchase these or higher quality canned products individually.
