To me, a freeway is 3-4 lanes with the big green signs showing you which off ramp is coming up,
It's similar for me. A freeway has no stoplights or stop signs and can be 2+ lanes and a speed limit of at least 55mph. A highway has 1-4 lanes with stoplights or stop signs that usually has a speed limit between 40 and 55mph but could be higher in more remote areas.
Skyline Chili (sometimes called Cincinnati Chili) is a regional pasta dish that has both chili and shredded cheese over spaghetti. The chili has no beans and is sweetened with baker's chocolate. It's much better than one might think. Skyline is a small restaurant chain in the Cincinnati area and owns the name, hence "Cincinnati Chili."
I'm pretty sure it is. Like on those "you know you're from Chicago lists", I think I've seen "you call it the expressway."Lari Did you notice you and I are the only ones who call it an "Expressway?" - must be a Chicago thing
I think Skyline is all over Ohio. The first time I had it was when I moved to Ohio, I asked the person if the people who started it were from Greece and she said they were. The chili has cinnamon in it which is very common in Greek food. It's okay, not a favorite for me. I have thought of it more like a spaghetti sauce then chili.
Skyline chili also has cloves in it. DH and I both tried it. Neither one of us liked it. It wasn't very chili-like to us either.
I've hardly ever heard anybody use the term "slumgullion" except my Dad. It was sort of a disparaging term, so it never got much use in our house. Really surprised it came up here.
I can see why some might not like it. I always did, however. Anyhow, Rudy's Hot Dog in Toledo Ohio has a chili quite like Skyline that they put on their dogs. I used to work in Toledo and Rudy's was a favorite lunch for those where I worked.
