What if it Snows?

I knew you'd be a pnw logger. Don't forget to pull your bunk pins. Your ready for a pumpkin log.

 

Here's a Mule train. Standard long logger with a pup. Deck main trailer and pup front axle is decked & rear axle on the ground. Need a bigger landing/turn around.

 

Im thinking it's going to trigger Yellowstone.

 

Listening about crusades. Particularly knights Templers. Homicide not allowed. Malacide, killing bad things, allowed.

 

All quiet here in the NEMO. But it's still early.

It’s Not Just You, Jalapeños Are Getting Less Spicy

️ Why Jalapeños Are Milder Today

• Modern jalapeños are intentionally bred to be less spicy to meet food industry demands for consistency in processed products.
  
  
• The TAM jalapeño, developed at Texas A&M University in the 1980s, was designed to have mild, predictable heat.
  
  
• Brands like Old El Paso requested milder peppers to ensure uniform flavor in mass-produced foods.
  

The Science Behind the Spice

• Jalapeños naturally vary in heat due to environmental factors and genetics.
  
  
• Even peppers from the same plant can differ in capsaicin levels.
  
  
• The TAM II variety further refined this consistency, making mild jalapeños the norm in grocery stores.
  

Historical Context

• The popularity of Mexican cuisine in the U.S. began in the late 19th century, with figures like William Gebhardt introducing chili powder.
  
  
• Over time, companies like Pace and La Victoria helped mainstream Mexican flavors, increasing demand for jalapeños.
  

The Paradox of Spicy Trends

• Despite the rise of spicy food culture (e.g., Hot Ones, chili crisp), most jalapeños are grown for processing, where mildness is preferred.
  
  
• About 60% of jalapeños are used in production rather than sold fresh.
  

Agricultural Impacts

• The shift toward milder, uniform crops reflects a broader trend of decreasing agrobiodiversity in U.S. and Mexican agriculture.
  
  
• Industrial farming favors monocultures, reducing the variety of chili peppers available.
