The active ingredient in peppers is Capsaicin (sp?). It is widely used in
topical skin ointments and muscle treatments as it obviously causes a heat
reaction . That word will be found in the label. As a meal preparation
participant and rarely a cook at my firehouse, I was continously amazed at
the tolerance differences between the Brothers. It had little to do with
ethnic backround, just some guys ate Cayennes like carrot sticks and others ,
like me, couldn't look sideways without getting 3rd degree burns. Tip: the
seeds are the worst ! I grew some nasties brought back from Sicily years ago,
and learned all the contact stuff the hard way..Bob, HOT-rod, Wanner
