 |  Turkey Chili
I noticed alot of you eat turkey chili. I bought some Hormel Turkey Chili and noticed 6 grams of sugar and sugar was listed in the ingredients near the beginning. Question, will iy make you dump or should you make homemade which I know would taste better. Thanks!!

I can eat it but I dont dump with only a little sugar. That really isnt much sugar. It will be up to your pouch. Good luck hope if you eat it it works good for you.

Canned is convenient, but homemade is usually better tasting. If you make a big crock pot of homemade and freeze individual portions of it, homemade is also convenient. <yummmmmm>

I don't do canned chili, even before surgery. I'm from Texas and we eat REAL chili. LOL
I agree with Perfesser, make a big pot and freeze individually. YUMMY!

hi - i don't eat canned chili - it is really easy to make. i do a large batch we will get two dinners out of it and then i have it for lunch most of the week.
i make mine with ground round and then rinse it off - ground round is lower in fat than other ground meats and is tasty.
i will take 2 pounds ground round, 2 cans of black beans rinsed, 1 can of kidney beans; a large can of crushed tomatoes (29oz ?); 14oz can of petite chopped tomatoes; first saute a medium size onion in olive oil and 1 tsp chopped garlic; while the meat is browning in the skillet i will put the tomatoes and beans in a soup pot, add two packages of chili seasoning and heat to a boil - then add the cooked ground meat - WARNING this is very thick hearty chili and you will want to have a lid to your soup pot while you are cooking because it has a tendency to make big pops (know what i mean, when it is heating and a heat bubble pops and splashes) stir a lot.

i have never had canned chili. 6g of sugar shouldnt make you dump but it aint worth the risk LOL. as for wendy's chili, i use to love it...until someone who worked there told me how it was made. now, i no longer love it!
if you make it at home you can control/modify ingredients to your likes and dislikes. homemade everything is better!
let us know how your batch comes out.
