This might be one of best lines in a post on CF.

I like chili, I like cinnamon rolls. I've lived in Iowa my whole life and have never heard of them going together!

Yeah I don't understand the desire to add cinnamon rolls to chili.

Lived in Iowa for 20+ years and never heard of this. Fake News

Cinnamon Rolls were always served with Chili back in the early 2000’s at my tiny school.

I feel bad for those that didn’t get to experience chili day with cinnamon rolls. I grew up in not rural Iowa and we got it (graduated 2001, as it may be more of a period of time thing than a location thing).

But to clarify a few things. You didn’t have a cinnamon roll bowl with chili in it. The cinnamon roll was on the side, like a dessert. There were also usually two other vegetable sides. The chili was in a regular bowl with crackers. It’s just that the cinnamon roll was the most delicious cinnamon roll and would only come on chili day (or so it’s remembered. My school district also gave them during taco day. It was just every Wednesday and chili day and taco day alternated Wednesdays.)

Some people did dip the cinnamon roll in their chili, but those kids should be ashamed and embarrassed.

Side note: as a future entrepreneur, I grew up poor and got free lunch, but would sell my cinnamon roll to a rich doctor’s kid for $5 bucks.

I've put butter on a pop tart.

I'm 55, and have lived in Iowa for all but 3 of those years. I grew up in rural Iowa in a town of approximately 1000, and had 39 in my graduating class. And I've never heard of chili and cinnamon rolls.

This thread has really taken a couple odd rabbit trails!

 

[jcyclonee]

I have never eaten a pop tart in my life.

How is this possible?

Also, who decided that it would be a good idea to make pop tarts without the icing?

 

[jcyclonee]

My wife's family has braunschweiger with their powdered doughnuts. It is weird but surprisingly good. I'll never understand my wife putting grape jelly on her chicken and dumplings. She actually has the dumplings with only the jelly on them then eats the chicken and gravy separately.

But then the dumplings don't have the gravy on them. I'm so confused by this.

Look at this prude over here.

Exactly.

1. Your first source and last one is the same person, Darcy Maulsby.
2. It looks like these are all in the western half of the state except for maybe Thornton which is North Central. A lot of the people saying they have never heard of this are from the Eastern half of the state.

I feel bad for you poor people from the Eastern part of the state. First, you don't get to have chili and cinnamon rolls for lunch. Second, you have that second-rate university bringing you down.

This is more true than you know. Try growing up a Cyclone where you are outnumbered by squawks about 12:1.

Is a $5 buck an Iowan thing, too?

From eastern Iowa and chili-cinnamon roll day was a staple at school.

You still had the second-rate university. That probably should have been point number 1.
