So here's what you do:

1) Stop eating bell peppers cold turkey

2) give your body time to relieve your toxic load

3) Eat bell peppers sparingly

I grew up in Northern NM allergic to green chile - a place where they put it in the goddamn waffles. Then I moved to Washington where I didn't get dirty gringo looks every time I ate out. Now when I come back to visit I can eat green chile cheeseburgers from Lotaburger.

I've got plenty of recipes with bell peppers in them. This one in particular is dope. I cut them up large and serve them to other people while eating around them myself. So far, so good.

HOWEVER

Do not for one minute think you are now immune. I made the mistake of stir-frying some bell peppers from the farm box because they looked awesome. My digestive system essentially shut down for four days - white rice was the same color and consistency coming and going (TMI, I know). I lost like nine pounds.

THUS there was no way I was going to tempt fate with the sauce. I feel pretty secure in the knowledge that had I made it with peppers, it'd be diet food, and not the good kind.

Damn I feel bad for you two. I am one of the rare kind of people who likes red bell pepper raw. Especially the pointy bell peppers, they're extra sweet here. If I ever needed to diet (I don't as I posses the skinny tall gene) I would just eat those all day.

edit: did you really had to name this 'humanodon sauce'?

My wife eats 'em like apples. They're these invisible things in the fridge - I don't notice them the same way I don't notice the baking soda.

And no, I didn't have to name it 'humanodon sauce.'

BUT I DID
