blahs

My last full day of vacation and I am stuck in my hotel room. All because my gut flora no longer handle hot peppers properly and because I ate jalapeños last night.

Seriously, jalapeños are the worst of the chile peppers. I think it is mostly because of the way jalapeños are traditionally prepared, preserved,and used. Capsaicin and vinegar are just plain evil, and since jalapeños are usually sliced to include the seeds, there is a lot more capsaicin to go around.
