Campbell'sChunky Chili with Beans, 16.5 oz Can

This is not the best soup in a can out there but I am still leaving 5 stars because...- the cost- the fact that it is the least unhealthy chili (lower sodium/fat)- the more you buy, the more you save (buy a case vs 1 can)- it is really good, just not W***y's chili good

My grocery store stocks the brand, but not this particular item.it is one of my favorites for a quick dinner.Nutrition information is clearly printed and was in the add, too.Pricing was confusing, until you realize it's a large sized can with 2 servings.You don't add water, like condensed soups.The flavor is not too spicy - don't be afraid to kick it up a notch.The beans are huge, but appropriate.High quality beef and high protein

When life throws you hunger pangs and absolutely zero energy to cook, Campbell’s Chunky Chili with Beans comes charging in like a culinary knight in slightly dented armor (hey, I bought it on sale). It’s not exactly a Michelin-starred masterpiece, but it’s also not a questionable 3 a.m. gas station burrito. This chili is a solid middle ground for people who just need to eat and fast.The beans are hearty, the meat chunks are suspiciously uniform (probably engineered to fit your spoon perfectly), and the sauce has a mild kick—kind of like when your grandma tries to spice things up but doesn’t want to upset her bridge club. It’s comfort food, minus the comfort of fresh ingredients.I tossed this into a bowl, nuked it for a couple of minutes, and was filled and fueled for a solid four hours. It’s practically a lazy man’s survival ration. The chili even managed to fool my roommate into thinking I cooked something. (“Wow, smells good!” they said. Thanks, Campbell’s!)Would I serve it at a dinner party? No. Would I pair it with a crusty bread roll on my “I have zero energy left” evenings? Absolutely. And if you sprinkle a little shredded cheese on top and call it “Tex-Mex,” your taste buds might even get excited.Final verdict: It won’t win the Chili Cook-Off, but it also won’t let you starve in the middle of an epic Netflix binge. Four stars because it's reliable, filling, and tastes good enough to make me forget I haven’t gone grocery shopping. Would chili again.

Hot but could be hotter.

I like spicy food. this is supposedly spicy (and I suspect it is to people who don't like spicy food), but I find that adding some really good hot sauce to it makes it way better.

Not sure if it was why they're sold bundled or if it was dented along the way but there's one odd dent under the top seal on the majority of the ones I got. Just one small dent you can feel when you pick each up.All in all it's chunky chili which is a go to for a frugal meal for me.No issues with the contents just the quality of the cans that I have an issue with. Like they would be the ones left on the shelf at the end of the day at a grocery store kind of thing you would end up settling for in my case. I'll opt for the 4 pack larger cans in the future for myself.

I found that since eating this with regularity, I have, indeed, become 'more regular'. This is is something I would not have noticed in my youth.I have always enjoyed the Campbell's CHUNKY line of canned goods. So, I decided to give this a try and I'm glad I did! I have enjoyed this thoroughly and will definitely get more. The discovery that it acts on my system as a sort of mild laxative is a bonus.I had Renal Failure four years ago and was hospitalized as a result. My Mom and Brothers have all expressed concern over my chosen diet, suspecting I am either Constipated or Diabetic. Happily, neither is the case.I didn't enjoy beans at all growing up. I found them plain, boring, and generally a waste of space on my dinner plate. My tastes have matured considerably. My palate can now accept the complexities of layered flavor in savory foods in ways I could not perceive at all before. I typically prefer my chilli served con carne, without beans. There were some dishes that where kind of OK that included beans... Chilli Size at George's Family Restaurant, the chilli served at Wendy's, and baked beans made with lots of brown sugar and ground beef. These chilli beans though are very good, absolutely delicious either alone or with rice or macaroni & cheese.I prefer chilli cheeseburgers and chilli cheese dogs without beans though. Today, I can eat chilli with a variety of beans, peppers, and even corn included.

Campbell's chunky chili with beans was great as a hotdogs topper. It has great beefy flavor with a touch of beans.
