For me, that snack is currently a brown paper container full of the chili cheese tots from Dog Haus in Pasadena. And yes, we said tots. Each order is a mound of crispy, golden brown tater tots ...

In the plethora of uses for leftover chili, chili fries are a classic choice. But classic doesn't always mean best. Ladling your leftover chili atop tater tots makes for a much more satisfying meal.

Chili cheese fries fall ... corn dogs, but they’re also serious about their chili cheese tots. That’s right, they’re serving their meaty chili and cheese on top of tater tots.
