Every store I shop at has them, they are a common item. The canned poblanos
are mild enough even for American palettes so they are a staple in any
store.

Both. I keep a half dozen cans of each in my pantry. I would and have used
them in rellenos and they tasted just fine. Now if I was cooking for
company, I'd go for whole fresh poblanos that I fire roasted to remove the
skins. Fresh chilies make for a nicer result to be sure but there is
nothing wrong with canned.
