What do they do with the leftover chile pulp/dust/slurry??? Do they do
like, say, Coors, and sell it as animal feed? Use it in Cayenne Red
paint for Porsche SUV s?
Just curious. Someone may be missing a marketing opportunity.
Like maybe the residue - with its residual cap could be used as in
ingredient in mouse/rodent resistant insulation for wires. I know of a
chem prof at SUNY Buffalo who markets a successful line of bird seed
coated with capsaicin ... which affects the birds not at all but
lights up those thieving squirrels to the point that they don't soon
revisit the feeder with the treated birdseed. Bv)=
