For me, I seek certain peppers for the taste & heat is a bonus... especially fresh chiles. A mild habanero, however, I don't know if that would fly.

IANANM, but my college roommate was. We roasted+peeled pounds of red & green chiles when his mom sent the fresh crop. Tasty times.

It's funny how NM chiles can be hard to find. As soon as I cross the border they go from a main ingredient to "it's a what?"
