Hi again,

I started reading this book called 'Chile Death' by Susan Albert. It's a
story about chili with chiles or something. Not quite sure since I just
started reading it. But it has some short info at the beginning of each
chapter. The start begins with part of a song from Kent Finlay, 1976 Paper
Napkin Music, BMI and it goes like this:

You burn some mesquite
And when the coals get hot
You bunk up some meat and you throw it on a pot
With some chile pods and garlic
And comino and stuff
Then you add a little salt
Till there's just enough
You can throw in some onions
To make it smell good
You can even ad tomatoes
If you feel like you should
But if you know beans about chili
You know that chili has no beans

If you know beans about chili
You know it didn't come from Mexico
Chili was God's gift to Texas
(Or maybe it came from down below)
And chili doesn't go with macaroni
And damned Yankee'sdon't go with chili queens;
And if you know beans about chili
You know that chili has no beans.

What is comino?

Y'all take care!

Miss Dewi
