Frankenstein's Jalapeño? WTF are they doing to jalapeños?
→[More:]As part of our xmas eve get-together, I always make a pan of sausage-stuffed jalapeños. Been making them for ages. Been eating jalapeños for longer than ages, too. I feel like I kinda know what a jalapeño looks like.
Over the past few years, it seems like jalapeños have undergone some sort of transformation from moderately-sized peppers into these gargantuan freaks. I just picked-up a couple of pounds of them today, and I swear some of these jalapeños are approaching the size of poblanos. Whereas, I used to simply halve a pepper lengthwise and fill both halves, a lot of these might easily be quartered.
What is Big Pepper doing to these things?
