Nutrition Information

Peppers

Good quality peppers should be of uniform size, shape, and color typical of the variety. The flesh should be firm, relatively thick with a bright skin color and sweet flavor, and free from defects such as cracks, decay, and sunburn. Peppers that are shriveled and dull-looking or pitted should be avoided.
