just what they advertise -- Dixon mediums.
Dixon's are a type of chile pepper, just like Hatch and Chimayo.
They are grown north of Santa Fe, near Chimayo. (actually, near Dixon,
NM!).
Your best bet would be to search out some chimayo mild; you can get 3
lbs for $18 which is a pretty good price (including shipping/handling)
from Bueno Foods http://www.buenofoods.com/. I've paid about $4-6/lb
from roadside vendors in that area.
Thanks
Mike
