For fresh jalapenos, at least, it's supposed to be that the more "cracks" in the skin, the hotter they are. I don't know how reliable that is. I don't mind if they are hot, or not hot, I just want to be able to tell before buying them. |

Yes, that's what he said although I have still bought some of those that weren't very hot. |

There are lots of waste products like that on the market these days, including (I suspect) the largely flavorless butter that is the norm at the supermarket now. Where does "natural butter flavor" come from? Ask your local dairy! |

It used to be that jalapenos were respected and even feared for their pungency. Now, you may as well be chomping on a green bell pepper. It's getting to be that you can't find a good hot pepper in the stores anywhere. Even habaneros are being dumbed down. |

I have never seen no-heat canned jalapeno's. If you're really in Oregon, maybe that's what they send up there. It's hard to find decent cheese up there too and I'm talking about Corvallis, which is one of four cities in Oregon I'd name first to have a decent cheese selection in every grocery store. -- Good Food.

I haven't seen them either, but I haven't looked. Canned vegetables are useless to me as most everything is cheaper fresh. As far as cheese goes, we have lots of good local cheese (Rogue Creamery and Tumelo) and even Fred Meyer has a good cheese island these days. As far as cheddar goes, Tilamook is grody (melts funny, off taste) but Bandon makes excellent cheddar that is priced like government cheese but melts well, tastes good, and is produced in small batches, though it is owned by Tilamook now. I have about 10 cheeses in the fridge now, all of which are pretty good. Though I must admit that none of our American faux-Parmesans rate anywhere close to the real thing, and are even inferior to Argentine Parmesan. |

Most canned jalapenos are MUCH hotter, if for no other reason than they don't remove the ribs/seeds, which then get cooked into the can making for some seriously hot peppers. remove the hot parts of a weak 'peno and get "low-heat" peni's. Not exactly rocket science. > Ever been to Tillamook? In fact, I have. Lived in Salem for a spell and explored the area extensively. This was in Tillamook's (the company) middle period. I din't do much cheese then, so can't comment. I did do Tillamook cheese b4 moving to OR and when they first hit the mkt. Hadda buy it by the lb, cut off from big ol' room temp cheese wheels. To die for cheddar! Now, 40 yrs later, I rarely buy their cheese. Its quality and flavor is barely better than most other sprmkt cheese brands. In fact, Cracker Barrel (Kraft) is as good and cheaper. The one exception is Tillamook's Vintage White cheddar cheese (2 yrs old) in the black 8oz pkg. Put's it above the avg and makes the most awesome mac n' cheese. In fact, local potluckers DEMAND I bring my MnC. ;) nb |

Still never heard of them. Apparently, wasn't attending enough OR cheese award strokefests. The boutique/artisan label does not automatically impart some sorta greatness on cheese. I've tasted many "award winning" cheeses. Yawn. We even have a goat cheese place here where I live. Goat milk cheese only. All kindsa cheese. All amazingly mediocre. As far as I'm concerned, their only truely good product is basic fresh goat milk. nb |

I think smaller ones are hotter. I usually get Oliverio pickled jalapenos, sometimes they're hot but not always.
