Fun Fact!
It's known that chili cheese fries were created in the United States, but the who and how are continuously up for debate. Some variations include a creative 16-year-old from Texas and another, a Dairy Queen employee from Missouri. It kind of feels like the origin of chili cheese fries are sort of an urban legend in the food world.
