Chili Ingredients

Chili Ingredients | Photograph | Wisconsin Historical Society
A person (out of frame) is chopping tomatoes on a cutting board, next to a pile of chopped onions. In front of the board are onion halves and containers of ground cumin, rosemary leaves, ground bay leaves, and a bottle of unidentified sauce. The person is wearing a shirt on which the words Chili Madness are visible, and a button that reads "It's A CHILI Day" is affixed to the apron. A connected news article provides context: "<b>Hot time at chili cook-off</b> Chili lovers from across the state gathered in Green Lake over the weekend for the 6th Annual Wisconsin State Chili Cook-Off Championship. About 40 teams participated in the event, which was held at Deacon Mills Park. Each team's chili was prepared and cooked at the site on the day of the cook-off and then judged (<b>below</b>). Visitors were able to see if they agreed with the expert as they sampled the chili after the judging. David Fenner, 41, of Janesville, was the winner and will go to California to compete with winners from other states for the national title."

Caption for this photograph reads: "The ingredients for a good bowl of hot chili were laid out as they were being prepared for the competition."
