I mean all vegetables are grown for look over taste these days.
Tomato’s being a particularly egregious example
idk what the best tomato is but my favorite so far is these little campari tomatoes
Very sweet! I personally like Russian black tomatoes (amazing for tomato sandwich) but campari are amazing with salad. Chunking campari beats using the tiny cherry tomatoes imo for that purpose
Picked and ate the first of the Russian blacks I’ve grown this season yesterday. It was so fleshy and had such a nice umami flavor and none of the sharp acidity. I’ll take a picture of the next one.
Big Salsa can take my yard peppers out of my cold dead hands
gods those are some productive plants.
last year i had like baskets overflowing from just 3 plants.
just start a community garden and they will
Big Cracka creates the problems and sells us the “cure”

Roasting does make them tastier though

If you’ve got the patience, you might be able to dehydrate them to make them feel spicier.
My tummy instincts tell me this is what happens when crackers and capitalism run the sciencey science stuff
Just eat bell peppers or anaheims or something and leave my jalapenos alone.
I legit don’t get the point when there’s so many pepper varieties.
Jalapenos have a specific flavor and they’re prolific bearers of fruit, maybe that’s part of it
Its not so people who can’t handle spice can eat more, it’s so that companies making industrial quantities of salsa, etc. can get a more consistent spice level but the same jalapeno flavor by using a mild pepper and adding capsaicin as needed
Which isn’t to say its good or normal, shit sucks
Then just use bell peppers and add more capsaicin
but then they cant legally tell people it has jalapeno in it, nor do they probably taste the same. Could probably get it pretty close though I admit
Just put one piece in
One piece?
swindled consumers when they realize they finally found the one piece in their adulterated salsa
Bell peppers don’t really taste like jalapenos, they lack any of the grassy jalapeno flavor
then use bell peppers and grass
Why use bell peppers? Use bells and peppercorns
White people do anything to avoid adding spice
capsaicin extracts have a hideous chemical flavor, it’s better to just use peppers at the level you want
Damn!
: “Ummmm…no one owes you flavor, sweaty! It’s porky’s right to remove flavor if he wants.”So that’s why my
ass can eat them now.So this is why I have been forced to buy like 12 at a time just to make sure I end up with a few hot enough to make Pico de Gallo.
Fuckers.
serrano gang is accepting applications
Edit: incorrect, I must just have never had a good Serrano
Serrano has always been milder though. Shit, last time I bought some habs from a regular store they were mild enough for a midwestern child who’s yet to learn ranch is optional
Most grocery stores are terrible about having properly ripe peppers and the flavor and heat levels suffer for it. Serranos are a common victim of this as are the habaneros you mentioned.
In my experience, Serranos have always been about twice as spicy as Jalapenos. Maybe I’ve just gotten some seed-packed scorchers?
I looked it up, they max out several times higher. I must just be in a region with incredibly mid Serrano supply
My condolences
It works out, grocery inadequacies aside the region is amazing for growing peppers.
Every year gets better for my area. Thanks, Climate change.
this is the level
have stooped to 
I tried some “tamed” jarred jalapeno slices from the store recently that were pretty good, mainly cuz I have less desire to shit fire than I used too. Just jalapenos with little spice basically.
They’re gonna reintroduce “heirloom jalapeños” and mark the price up by ×5
Heirloom varieties of vegetables are cool and good, food biodiversity is crucial to a healthy food system. The markup is a large part bs, and a small part a reflection of how expensive it is to grow non-commercial/not-patented vegetable varieties.
Capitalism has gone too far this time
