At any rate, I can say, without reservation, and I do not have any financial affilliation with Red Lion Spicy Foods whatsoever, that this is a fantastic product...great flavor, and a most excellent Chili Mix....any CH who does not wish to make his own stuff up can get a wonderful chili by using Chip's Chili Mix....and you ALL know how much I cook, and what I cook! Try it, you will love it, and the price is right! Cheers, Doug in BC >> We also were beta-testers (Mac-heads and CH'ers stick together hey Doug?) We felt it needed more heat but we've found that quite easy to adjust! :-) Thanks to Jim's stuff---I know I am addicted to the Applewood Smoked Habanaro! Mary-Anne, and the rest of the family who loved it!!!!! Steve, Anne-Marie, Rob, Suzue (Japanese student) Rob, April and even Andrew (3 Y/o CH)
