So we're gonna go into a spicy or not so spicy topic
00:07
If you think jalapenos are less spicy than they used to
00:12
be, you're not crazy.
00:15
They actually are investigations show that there might be a jalapeno conspiracy
00:22
to make them less spicy on purpose.
00:23
Damn. Sounds like you know the on the white agenda
00:28
So according to a board member of New Mexico State University's
00:32
Chile Pepper Institute processing plants really want low heat,
00:39
high flavor jalapenos, these processing plants then make jalapeno chips,
00:46
dips sauces and yes,
00:49
jalapeno poppers. Well,
00:51
20 years ago, researchers at Texas A and M University invented
00:55
the tame two jalapeno shiny big and not spicy.
01:00
Some tame twos are even milder than a poblano pepper today.
01:04
It's become one of the most popular jalapeno varieties ever.
01:08
Eventually, the attempt to cross bread with other varieties and now
01:13
jalapenos in the US just don't hit the same anymore.
01:18
Meanwhile, the spicier jalapenos are losing ground and it's just
01:23
crazy to me because like everything is becoming less spicy.
01:27
Like these are like these are basically the trader Joe's jalapenos.
01:30
I like making faces when I eat them like I the the
01:32
spice level. Depends on the face.
01:34
I me Yeah. You know if I make a crazy,
01:37
should we both? What's the,
01:39
what, what will get the crazy reaction?
01:41
This one or this one,
01:43
this one do it like oh this is not hitting at all
01:49
another bite. I'll take another bite.
01:56
I eat the whole thing.
01:59
You gotta give me time.
