m (Jalapeños moved to Jalapeño: correct title, singular)

Revision as of 06:00, 22 January 2007

Jalapeños are small Earth chile peppers distinguished for their "heat" or extreme spiciness when eaten. Cooks often use jalapeños as an ingredient in some dishes or as a garnish.

Neelix, unaware of the jalapeños "heat", used a few too many in a meal he prepared for the crew of the USS Voyager sending some crewpersons who consumed the meal to sickbay. Those who are familiar with the pronunciation of jalapeños pronounce it "ha-luh-PANE-yo". Neelix however pronounced it "jal-ap-anos" (VOY: "Message in a Bottle").
