Just got back from the Giant Eagle grocery, they had a kind of hab I haven't 
seen in stores around here before.  I suspect they may be chocolate ones 
that aren't quite ripe yet.  They are mottled like apples, part green and 
part red, and when the colors mix they start to look maroon/dark brown.  
Also, they are shaped more like scotch bonnets, multi-lobed like pumpkins 
instead of long with dimpled sides.

I test-detonated some slices with plain cream cheese on a saltine cracker.  
The kick is a bit slow to come on, a bit disappiinting for a moment, then 
WOW.

So do chocolate habs go through a mottled color cycle like that?  I've never 
grown them.
