I don't like ANY peppers in my food..

Have you ever watched the TV program Man Vs Food? Silly to watch someone big out on the 'biggest' creations possible. Including the six pound steak out in Amarillo TX....advertised for 100 miles along the interstate..free if you can finish it, a few pounds of potato and a few pounds of salad and bread. Otherwise it's like 450 or $60 bucks.
