Anyone ever tried this? Seems like it might be good.

Probably not bad, but I'm going to say no. I have had chili served over rice and also grits, so adding a starch that will absorb the flavoring isn't going to hurt anything.

I think the next twist I will try with chili is to serve it with waffles made with cornbread batter.

One of the ways to lower the heat or salt in a recipe is to add potatoes to absorb some of the offending characteristic. I've never added potatoes to chili, although I have served chili over a baked potato. Topped with cheese, green onions or diced onions. Very quick and tasty meal, and a way to finish up chili when you don't have enough leftovers for another meal and don't have or want hotdogs.

I put chili on a baked potato don’t see how this could not work.

Chili and cheese over french fries is great.

Someone below suggested cornbread waffles and we do that. It is good that way also.

Same with baked potato suggestion and elbow Mac suggestion.

When I was a kid, we ate a lot of Hormel chili (It was better back then.) My older brother liked to add sliced onions and potatoes. It was OK for what it was, but it didn't make me want to start putting potatoes in my chili.

No potatoes but I do add a handful of fresh mushrooms from time to time. They soak up all the flavors and are really delicious.

I might be crazy, but I’m not a fan of potatoes. They add nothing in most meals
