Cinnamon roll with chili · Kansas City
A school-cafeteria pairing that became a Kansas City classic: a yeast-leavened cinnamon roll served as the side dish to a bowl of chili, often at lunch counters and meat-and-three rooms.
The cinnamon-roll-with-chili pairing came out of Kansas City school cafeterias in the 1960s, where chefs scaled bakery-counter rolls for school lunch programmes and paired them with chili as the protein. Stroud's, which had been serving cinnamon rolls with fried chicken since 1933, helped cement the format. The combination spread to truck stops and lunch counters across western Missouri and eastern Kansas.
