What is the favorite combination school lunch combination served with chili?
Cinnamon rolls!
I don't think the peculiar pairing is unique to South Dakota school lunches. I'm no expert, but I have the impression it's at least as common in Nebraska (and other states). I never came across it during my time in Seattle, but apparently the combination is also found in the Pacific Northwest, where it's sometimes called
"loggers' breakfast."Cathy2 wrote:We joked on the way home on how to conveniently replicate this lunch favorite: Wendy's chili and Cinnabuns!
Or you could get the combo without the trouble of visiting two chains. Runza, a Nebraska-based fast food chain, offers a
Chili & Cinnamon Rolls Meal at its 80-some locations during the cooler months.
