Thanks for telling me that. I'll test the bitter thing. Texture? I don't care.

They are bitter.

I just rip them open over the sink and yank out the seeds part, under running water. I wash them anyway and remove the stem. It's like 3 seconds more, and I don't have the bitter seeds between my teeth.

I just pull them out because it makes it easier to chop the pepper into even slices. I however, don't remove the seeds with chillies because I want it to be as spicy as possible. I used to hate spicey food as a kid, but as I've gotten older I just can't get enough of it, nothing ever seems to be spicy enough lol

The seeds themselves contain no capsaicin.

So if the seeds are pithing me off, I shouldn't leave them en-cap-sulated?

It's more the pith than the seeds btw. If you want to add some spice without the texture.

Texture. If you're pulverizing them, it won't make a difference but I hate getting them stuck between my teeth

I'm a Boomer, and we were taught the seeds were poisonous!

Neither do I. The spiciness is why I am using them in the first place.

You can see the seeds when they come out. Tells you how fast you digestive system is.

Green pepper seeds are bitter. If you put too many in a soup it makes the soup taste bitter and coats your mouth.
