Have you ever heard of a chocolate bell pepper?

[Tiggerkeeper]

DH and I went to get some plants for our small garden here at home (we have a large garden in the N. Ga Mtns but I like to have tomatoes on hand here all the time) and found a chocolate bell pepper plant. The picture looks just like a regular bell pepper just black in color. I don't know if it will be sweet or what but I guess we will find out!

Anyone ever hear of such?

Thanks

Have never heard of the chocolate bell pepper, maybe it like the purple ones they sell in the supermarket. They start out green, turn brown and reverts back to green when cooked. Let us know how this pepper is. I bet they are a very sweet pepper with no pepper kick-back.

This is what you are looking for.
Pepper : Sweet : Sweet Chocolate
Vegetable. This early-fruiting, cold-tolerant sweet bell pepper tastes sweet and juicy straight off the plant - a good low-calorie substitute for chocolate!

Thanks for the info. I can't wait to try one of these!

I cannot see how a pepper can be a substitute for chocolate...yuck.
