I don't care much for Tabasco, either. Jalapenos are nice, but often
over-used. I'm a big Serrano fan. You can always find them fairly cheap,
they've got a good mix of flavor and heat, and go well with most anything.
If I have a recipe calling for "green chiles" I'll invariably choose
serranos the first time.
But Habs don't taste bad. I don't really like them by themselves either,
but I don't really like any pepper by itself. Habs go really well with
other peppers, as well as sweet flavors. I especially like the flavor
combinations of Habs and Mango (hence the mango habanero mustard sauce I
make and love...) and Habs and cream cheese.

No one is to stone anyone until I blow this wistle. Not - and I want to
make this abs-olutely clear - not even if he says "jehalapeno".
