He tried to eat Chile? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chile
WTF???
They actually changed it on purpose to be stupid?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chile_(disambiguation)
“Chile may also refer to:
Food
Chile pepper, the spicy fruit of plants in the genus Capsicum”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chili_pepper
“Chili peppers, also spelled chile or chilli”
If you mean Chili write Chili or Chilli, Chile is a country. Also why did AP feel they needed to change it, when the other spellings are equally correct, and more common.
That's moronic.
Chile as a spice is also near impossible to search for, you will get exclusively results that are spelled chilli or chili. So why opt for a spelling that in every way is worse?
From early contact in Central America between Spanish explorers and Aztec folk, local spicy peppers — primarily the jalapeño type — were noted as “chiles”. Other similar fruits were also tagged as “chiles” — a term which had the indigenous sense “hot-to-the-taste.”
'Chile' has been used for a lot longer than 'chili'. If anyone is spelling it wrong, it is you, not them.
OK
Look up red or green Chile, it will show up in any search,and in new Mexico you will get slapped for spelling it chili because chili is Texas beans and meat not the flavorful Chile grown in the region
