Red onion, jalapeno, taco seasoned chicken. Probably about a quarter pound of chicken.

Seasoned chicken on pizza is underrated.

Cost per person, $3.50

    Yeah, I meant just in having the capsicum kick. A low-heat cultivar accidentally cross-pollinating with an otherwise hot jalapeño, diluting its heat.

    Also, I said “species,” but I was wrong. I meant genus Capsicum, its members which can commonly interbreed AFAIK, which would be thousands of different types. And I’d completely forgotten that:

    [There are] five major species of cultivated peppers (genus Capsicum): C. annuum, C. chinense, C. baccatum, C. frutescens, and C. pubescens. --WP

    Blimey.

      The good news with the cross pollination is that it ruins the heat if you plant the seeds from that cross. Doesn’t ruin the heat from the fruit. Unlike corn. Cross pollinate corn and you’ll get bad results immediately. Fortunately that can be solved by just planning different types of corn 2 weeks apart.
