I know it was long time ago , but we had a Chili cook off back in October and boy was it fun! We had a fixins’ bar with white cheddar cheese, sliced avacado, green onions, sour cream, fresh limes, Fritos and tortilla chips!

This is the chili that took the win. Mike, our flavor czar, made a General Tso’s chili, it was awesome. Sweet, spicy and just plain amazing.

Anthony  made a BBQ vegetarian chili. It had a ton of layered flavors and didn’t taste a thing like it was vegetarian.

Niki made a pumpkin chili! She used pumpkin beer, our own pumpkin spice coffee and pumpkin puree. This is one of the chili’s that was empty at the end of the contest.

Diane made a white grilled chicken chili that was really tasty…her’s went super fast.

Here is Meg’s Vegan Bulgar Wheat Chili. It was chock full of veggies and super spicy. Meg made so much chili it overflowed her crock pot!

Josh made his Dad’s famous chili. This one was emptied in no time.

David who made chili for the first time ever made a red chicken chili.

Here is Molly’s tofu chili…she was not very happy with the results…since it came out more like a soup.

Marcie made a traditional beef chili using beer, coco and Dark Costa Rican.

Here at CBD we wanted to show you what the convenience of K-cups is really costing you, and what better way of doing that than a handy dandy infographic!

Now don’t get us wrong we really like the Keurig machine we are just not fans of the stale coffee, the high cost and the trash associated with the K-cups. We use our Keurig regularly here at the CBD offices, it sits right next to our French Press and auto drip machines. The only difference is we brew our coffee in it using a Ekobrew. Now, thanks to the Ekobrew Reusable Filter, your Keurig can have the freedom it deserves. Choose any coffee you want – it’s finally up to you! We love it so much that we are offering $5 off your order of $35 or more with the purchase of an Ekobrew.
