Star actor Peyton List is a major Cincinnati-style chili fan.
List, known for her roles in "Jessie," "Cobra Kai" and "School Spirits," appeared on the April 18 episode of the YouTube cooking show "Mythical Kitchen. She discussed what she would eat for her last meal before death.
Her answer?
List told host Josh Scherer she would have: pressed salmon oshi, carbonara pizza, a cannoli, a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Blizzard from Dairy Queen and Skyline Chili with "all the fixings."

The duo tried all her favorite dishes, including a five-way from Skyline, along with the local chili parlor's signature hot sauce and oyster crackers. According to the video, List tried Skyline Chili for the first time in 2015 while in town for Cincinnati's Cavalcade of Customs car show. She said her mom, who attended high school in Cincinnati and would always eat the local delicacy after football games, urged her to try it.
"She said it was like an acquired taste, and she kind of warned me that I wouldn't like it the first time, but I loved it," List explained.
The 25-year-old added that she is such a fan of the dish she orders cans of Skyline's chili, and would love to return to Cincinnati to hang out with Skyline employees.
"If Cincinnati sees this, you're gonna get the key to the city," Scherer joked. "You're, to me, the most high profile Cincinnati chili fan. ... If you keep it up, you're gonna be the mayor of Cincinnati."
Watch out, Mayor Aftab Pureval?
Scherer admitted he had never had Cincinnati-style chili, despite knowing its history. And after trying a heaping bite of the five-way, he agreed with List's review, calling it "incredible."
"Thank you for this true gift," he said.
