thanks for the link. noticed where the jalapenos were on the list.

forgot to mention before, some medications can also alter the taste
buds. it's not always listed on the papers that come with your meds as a
side effect, but it is a proven fact. watch the side-effects of your
meds, whatever they may be, and look them up for yourself, instead of
trusting a pharmacy insert.

gotta go, baby just discovered the vent!
