You don't eat them raw though, do you?

Every once in awhile it's fun to bite into a jalapeno.

I agree.
If by "every once in a while" you mean like every day, with almost every meal.

I tend to use the serrano peppers most often, especially in my fresh salsa. I may have to set aside a corner in my herb garden to grow my own.
Fooey. Hope they get it settled soon. That canned salsa is nasty when you are accustomed to fresh.

I think the next administration needs to make Michael Pollan head of the FDA.
