No fine print on the cover reading "Serving Suggestion"?  That's how they
weasel out of it.

Speaking of all those fresh hots, I had a pleasant surprise at the local
stupormarket tonight...all hot peppers, all varieties...99c a pound!!!
Joy!  Rapture!  I bought all the habbies they had, plus a BIG ol' handful or
two of bright red caribes, and a few plump Anaheims, and a bunch of Hungarian
yallers...I was mighty pleased and surprised to see how MANY peppers fit 
into one o' them plastic produce bags (and still weighed only a couple pounds!)
