What you said ... I prefer the darker Mulato as I think it has better
flavour. I grind both both ancho and mulato for my chilli spice mix.
The mulato seems to add a depth of flavour that is missing when I use
just the ancho - and the resultant chilli cooks up darker brown ...
more away from the traditional "Bowl of Red" side.

you don't want government to intervene anywhere, you're an extremist.
