Transcript for February 27th
Welcome to February 27th, 2020 on the National Day Calendar. Today we celebrate all things chili. More after the break from our founder, Marlo Anderson.
Even though we associate chili with Texas and the Southwest, would you believe that the chili capital of the world is Cincinnati? Texans may take exception with that title, but it’s true. Every region seems to have their own spin on how to prepare chili. Some like it spicy, some with beef, some with chicken, and—if you’re in Cincinnati—with a touch of cinnamon. Whatever your preference, rustle up your favorite recipe and enjoy National Chili Day!

And that beautiful white coat is actually made up of translucent hairs that only appear white because they reflect the color of snow. On National Polar Bear Day, considering helping them with the only threat they cannot overcome on their own, their disappearing climate.
