Guy notices chili omelet has been pulled from menu.

Chili Chat investigates:

Chili Chat was contacted earlier this week regarding a story out of Crenselvania, Utah.

As the Crenselvania Chronicle reported in the Sunday edition of their paper, local Orthodontist Tad Stensil noticed late Saturday afternoon that “Sizzle Chet’s Diner” on Skinker Avenue, has removed the chili omelet from their menu.

“Me? I’ve never tried it.” said Stensil. “I just always see it on the menu. I’m a tuna on toast guy.” Traditionally a poor seller on most menus, the chili omelet has never quite found its niche, especially in the conservative town of Crenselvania. “I think I saw this one guy order it once, or maybe that was somewhere else?  I can’t remember.” Added Tad.When asked where the chili omelet currently resides, owner/chef Chet Sizzler told Chili Chat “Beats me. I don’t recall ever having to make one.  To be quite honest with you, I didn’t know we even had it or who removed it from the menu.  The folks around here don’t care much for chili.  They say it reminds them of…well you know…poo.  If I was flopping chili omelets in front of my customers all day, this place would look like an Iggy Pop concert.” Sizzler also informed us that no one else had noticed the glaring omission from the menu.  “We’ll stick to the basics for now.” said the confident chef.

Chili Chat is a bit disappointed to hear about this mild travesty.  We encourage other diners not to follow suit.  Just because Sizzle Chet’s Diner feels it’s customers may not want to be treated to a sloppy mess of runny eggs, American cheese and floppy chili, doesn’t mean the rest of the world wouldn’t oblige.

For the record, Sizzle Chet’s best selling omelet?  Plain.
... I rest my case.
