hi folks,
   while chopping some serranos today, i noticed that about 1/3 of them
had seeds which had a dark, almost blackish coloration in the center
of the seed itself. the other peppers ( red serranos, btw ) had a
typical
"cream" color to the seeds.
i confess, though they were fresh at time of purchase, they did lounge
in the fridge for about 7 days; slightly wilted stems but firm pods.
   any idea what the discoloration might be? what caused it?
are they still OK to eat?
regards
peter g
