Do you even know how much you look and sound like John Cusack?? You are hot!

Paige, I have gotten Elvis and John Belushi before but never John Cusack. Regardless, thanks!

go with the frozen chili-only. Make your own noodles, kidney beans, cheese, onions, and oyster crackers. It is a passable substitute for the real deal in Cincy.

You walked away with the box and then you walked back with it. Wow. I thought it would be done by then.

If you like a 3-way, you should try the coney, which is a hot dog with the chili and cheese. Awesome. No one knows the exact recipe, they'd have to kill you if they told you, but we've heard here in Cincinnati there is chocolate, nutmeg in it. You either love it or hate it. If you grew up with it, you can't imagine NOT eating it. They also sell it in cans, like you suggested, so you can make your own. They also sell the finely shredded cheese in bags too. But thanks for reviewing it. Football and basketball games wouldn't be the same without going to Skyline afterwards.

as a current and life long cincinnatian, i must say that you did not put nearly enough cheese on it. skyline actually sells their cheese in the grocery store as well. mild cheddar and finely shredded. also, the mixing of the chili/spaghetti/cheese is a no-no. you layer everything and slice/scoop it to get each layer. skyline sells frozen chili without the spaghetti if you wanted to experience it that way. if you purchased the chili by itself you could make skyline dip with it as well (cream cheese, chili, cheese). if you do attempt skyline eating again with onions or beans, make sure the onions are chopped very fine, diced, so you get the full experience. i agree with a previous poster as well, you really have to experience skyline AT skyline, especially if youre a newbie.

Favorite part: the comedic timing of the canned TV laughter in the background and your "plate is volcanic" line.

Another tasty episode. Like the ethnic detective work in deciphering the recipe.

I'm not sure what the hype is... I am from Cleveland and Skyline just doesn't work for me. :( Maybe it's brown color, the smell I don't know??? I am more of the meaty Texas chili kind of guy. Either way, good in depth review!!

Don't listen to Schneider - I have many memorable nights perched over my college throne compliments of Hudy. it's a delightful beverage.

BTW I love your cabinets.
