It’s no surprise that the area of the country must known for spaghetti in chili is also a fan of sausage cut with oatmeal/sawdust.
Nothing in this post is correct.
Cincinnati doesn't put spaghetti in its chili. It pours chili over top of spaghetti when it creates a 3-way (chili, cheese, spaghetti), 4-way (add onion or beans) or 5-way (onions and beans). I personally do not eat Cincinnati style chili unless it is served over spaghetti, in a chillito or on a chili dog.
You can still get thicker, non Cincy style chili without the noodles, even texas style, at just as many restaurants as you can in other places.
And Cincinnati has some of the best sausage in the world. It is freaking Porkopolis for fux sake. It was built on Sausage.
Goetta is a completely different thing. And its awesome.
And there isn't any sawdust in it, you uncivilized rube.
I hope you learned something today and will stop spreading fake news.
