I like the kind of cornbread that has jalapenos, cheese and corn kernels
added to the batter. It makes a good base for a bowl of chili.

Edumacate me, Goomba. You put the cornbread (crumbled?) into your chili
bowl and then pour chili on top of it?

Yeah, except usually I put a large cut square of cornbread (plain or
jalapeno/cheese) in the bowl and ladle the chili on top. When I have
made a particularly hot and spicy batch of chili, the cornbread helps
temper it a bit.

It's a sort of Tex-Mex treatment. May also be made with creamed corn (often
canned now). That one isn't served in a bowl with milk, but with chili on
top just as you see.

Creamed corn in cornbread is the gods. ;-d
Also goes really well in corn waffles!

I have a sort of spoonbread-like recipe that has creamed
corn in it. Yum!

Sounds tasty. Ever tried creamed corn nuggets? I've never tried making
them but they are available commercially. Creamed corn (probably mixed
with corn meal) rolled into balls and deep fried. They were offered in
the cafeteria where I used to work now and then. Likely made by Cysco.

I've tried the chili cornbread combo a few times and I just don't get
it. I love cornbread but for chili I like oyster crackers or
saltines.

I like that, too. Unfortunately since being hospitalized for diverticulitis
I have to avoid whole corn kernels. (Such a shame because I love grilled
corn on the cob.) Jalapenos are fine if they've had the seeds removed
first.
