To watery beans not soft enough

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

This chili has become way too watery. Used to be thick, and you could taste the meat; now all you taste is the seasonings and water. As a Texan, let me tell you, this is not Texas chili.

Horrible Taste

Wolf Brand Chili - Horrible Taste

Wolf hotdog sauce is not fit to eat. It tasted like bad green beer.

I should've looked at the ingredients. All fake food. Upon opening the can, it looked very promising, except it was very, very dark. After the first taste, I knew I had made a mistake buying this brand.

Water, beef broth, textured vegetable protein (soy flour, caramel color), pinto bean powder, tomato paste, modified corn starch, chili pepper, contains less than 2% of: salt, caramel color, sugar, garlic powder, soy lecithin, spice, natural flavors.

Contains: soy.

Not happy with product anymore

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I've been buying the Wolf Brand Chili Beans for years, and it was great, but not anymore. It has been watered down and doesn't have the thickness to it.

It hardly has any beans in it, and it's not spicy like it's supposed to be.

It was purchased at Dollar General. I'm not paying for a watered-down product.

The chili had the consistency of soup. It was watery and lacked any ingredients that made you believe you purchased chili.

Question

Ive love wolf's chili for ever!

I now live in a nursing home and i get $30 monthly for outside purchasing.

I buy 4 cans , two bags of the cheapest corn chips, cheap cheese sauce to eat because the food here is HORRIBLE.

Could you make the cans with an easy pull top? Getting the stuff to open a can is like asking a fish to walk on land. It would be very helpful.

Thanks

It not horrible but not very great

The chili tastes cheap and like there are bits of sand in it. Possible fillers?

I dont know but heard good things. But unfortunately like everything else its about profit margins.

Its a sad world when everything is based on money and not making good chili. I suggest making your own chili.

Chili with beans but is w/o!

I've recently purchased 3 cans of Chili w/beans for my 78-year-old Aunt. All of these cans claimed to have beans in them.

I'm not sure, but having 2.5 beans per 7.25 oz is not even 3 whole beans!! This is not acceptable! My Aunt Lucy said she no longer wants to eat your brand if it is going to continue to have zero beans. This is her favorite food for lunch with Fritos!

She eats this daily and knows her chili!!! Especially if there are not many beans in it.

Thank you! Michelle and Aunt Lucy

Pros:
  • We love the flavor
Cons:
  • Chili with beans seriously has 1 maybe 2 beans in a single

Preferred solution: More beans in the chili and coupons for free chili
