Perry -- When I was living in ABQ, I never had a problem finding red jalapenos at the flea market (swap meet) at the fairgrounds -- people would bring them up in trucks from Mexico. Also, I can agree that it was much harder to find chipotles meco than chipotles colorado when I lived there. Again, I would try the swap meet. Matt --- "Perry C.
