Comment on A potential ‘anti-spice’ that could dial down the heat of fiery food

Really confused on the purpose for this. Pepper growers have a petty good handle on how to dial up/down the heat level of peppers (stress tends to increase the heat). We also have people breeding tons of new varieties of peppers with different shapes, colours, flavours, textures, and heat levels.
Check this out:
These are habanada peppers. A variation on the habanero, they have no heat at all! Similar flavour but zero capsaicin, just like a sweet bell pepper.

I want spicy salsa, my mom cant handle spice. If this is what i think it is, i can just add it to hers and be happy.

Yes! And you can mix and match with regular habaneros to tune your own spice level until it’s perfect. You can basically achieve any spice level between zero and full habanero by combining in different ratios!
