    Anyways, I was looking at this menu a few days ago and they had 'Chille topped with sour cream and chopped spring onions'
    So I says to the missus later that I will try this idea. She says 'oh I always wondered why you never put sour cream and spring onions on the chille'
    Checked with the daughter , check
    the daughter in law, check

    everyone in the world knew this. except me.

    I feel such a culinery fool


    You be telling us next that you don't put cumin, unsweetened chocolate and thyme in it.



    FWIW, Zippy is right, not everyone likes sour cream/yoghurt; let them add their own.
    The vegetarian option.

            Oh and leave people to add their own cream/yoghurt as the idea is to decrease the hotness so some people like a lot, some people like a little and some people prefer none.

              I used to add pineapple and banana to my chilli, but people found it weird, so I stopped. I have a secret ingredient though, and it isn't a bodily fluid.
