Whatever it is, it reached the size of an Anaheim chile so 
I snipped the thing off the plant yesterday (06/06/01) and 
gave it a try.  I've heard people mention they sense a "grassy" 
taste in green jalapenos.  I don't, but I'd have to say that 
was my first impression of this chile...that, and absolutely 
no heat.  My wife has expressed her sincere apology for 
talking me into buying it.
