I’m making some very basic chili. I have a can of black beans thats near expiry. Will adding it to my chili ruin it? It would be a 2:1 ratio of kidney beans to black beans.

    As everyone has essentially said, ain’t no such thing as bad beans for a chili. And that goes for stuff you might not think of as being good in chill. But I’ve cobbled together chili out of some seriously depleted pantries over the years, and I swear that any legume I’ve run across has worked, to some degree or another. Only question wound be the best prep for a given bean.

    No bullshit, ive done it with limas, lentils, and peas at various points in time, and they all worked fine. Different, yes, but still quite nice
