Yesterday's jalepeños.
They were good in the fajitas last night but the mayo took the edge off them.

Today they are the worst thing I've eaten. There's a reason the jar says "hot" all over it and the lid. Holy fucking shit on a stick they're hot.

They fucking arn't
Jalepenos are mild at best, especially the shite we get over here.

Yes, yes, you like hot chillies
so you obviously have a huge cock and fuck supermodels.

We get it.

On the other hand, not having to compensate for any psychological insecurities or physical inadequacies means that some people here are free to declare that they don't enjoy ridiculously hot things, if they don't.

You sir are a Dick - Infact worse than that...an uninformed dick
The scoville scale puts the Jalapeno firmly in the mild category...Not the hot...

Now that's Hot.

You mean the scale that measures chillies against one another
rather than, say, a Jalepeno against a Vanilla Ice Cream?

Haha! This^
That's like going into a burns unit and telling people to stop being such a pussy, because a housefire isn't really that hot on a scale of hot things. "Try venturing into the middle of the Sun...then you'll know hot!"

things to try in your life
1 go into a burns ward and ask if it is hot enough
2 go in to a burns ward and start your fire breathing act as a way of cheering up the inmates
3 go in to the maternity ward and ask were the home for retired seamen is
etc
etc
etc

There is literally no way on God's green Earth
that you could think jalepeños are hot.
(Falstaff's Spiritual Successor, Wed 1 Jun 2011, 17:09, closed)

No
there is no way on God's green earth that YOU think they are.
( scarpe We Stole Bikes, Wed 1 Jun 2011, 17:11, closed)

No.
Bushcricket is completely correct. They are called 'mild' by the Scoville scale, therefore they are no spicier than cheddar or or bus tickets.


_{Hint: Bushcricket is a mong.}
(Falstaff's Spiritual Successor, Wed 1 Jun 2011, 19:44, closed)

Bushcricket may well be a mong
but if someone finds something hot, it's hot.

And I refer you to my post above re the merits of the scoville scale.

Wait, I am properly confused now...who's a what in this conversation?
( scarpe We Stole Bikes, Wed 1 Jun 2011, 19:54, closed)

Isn't there a certain amount of a particular, burny ingredient that I can't really spell...
Capsicum? Capsaicin? that determines the old hotness of them there chillies? IE I don't think that scale is complete rubbish. Maybe.

Really though, you just build up a tolerance to spice the more you eat. And for the purposes of comparing chillies to other chillies, Jalapenos are pretty mild compared to others. If you couldn't compare them, and someone wanted to start on spicy foods, and you just said 'oh, they're all HOT! Eat THIS!' and gave him a naga, you'd probably kill them. Best to start on something 'relatively' mild, like a green pepper. I mean, Jalapeno.
( SigmaX0 Dear Die Hard. You rock!, Thu 2 Jun 2011, 8:11, closed)

Absolutely
That's my point. Jalepeno's may well be 'relatively' mild. And there is nothing wrong with a scale measuring them against one another so you know what to expect, but if someone has a Jalepeno and finds it too hot for them, it's hot on absolute terms for them and for anyone to clain otherwise is either ignorance or obstinance.

Going down
They were fine on the way down. I really enjoyed them. It was my muck spreader which took exception to them.
