First time with poppers, here's the pics:
Conclusion?
Well, all my life I've been traumatized by the texture of a lot of fruits and veggies, getting into peppers is one way I'm trying to become more comfortable with them. I'm always more comfortable when I make things myself, I figure, if I made it, I should eat it.
So I took my daring first bite.. and after wincing for a moment and chewing, I found behind the slightly crunchy walls of the Jal, a delicious food.
I think you guys have convinced me without even trying, I do enjoy Poppers. I hope for many more of these kinds of eye opening experiences with my foods. It's pretty tiresome to love the ideas of certain foods and to be anxious about eating them.

Oh and Recipe:
5 Jals
Couple spoonfulls of cream cheese, a spoonful of sour cream, a dash of garlic salt, some processed pseudocheese (tasty, but not recommend for health reasons), and what really made the dish: Some crunched up Garlic bagel chips. Essentially seasoned bread crackers.
I also ate the one that just had Jal with Creamcheese inside, it was pretty decent, I guess I do enjoy the taste of Jals alone.
Still, to suit my own preferences, since I found that I liked the soft bottoms of the poppers more than the crunchy side walls that I will cook mine longer and actually remove my GF's sooner, she likes them crunchy
I think I'd like to try a popper in a pepper with a thinner wall. Any recommendations?
