Most people have no problem with small amounts. I don't. What it
does is extend the flavor of the pork. More meaty taste with less
meat used. A little bit goes a long way. I'd say I used about 1/8t
in the whole thing, which was made with two whole large green bell
peppers. If you think you're sensitive, by all means avoid it.
