Tastes like a Tuesday" is a compliment and your kid doesn't even know it. Tuesday is the most honest day of the week. No hype, no weekend magic, just a day that shows up and does its job. Your chili is the food version of that. Somebody spent 15 minutes making something real for their family on a random night and the kid noticed it had a feel. That's wild when you think about it. Most fancy food doesn't taste like anything except effort. Yours tastes like time itself.
