Not even if you get that lovely shirt with skulls to go with the jalapenos?
The only thing my husband wants on that list is an Air. I guess I chose well.
Well, I like ’em, though I’m not expecting to get any for Christmas.
This gift is more about “What do women want?”. A possible answer: a memorable gift to give to a man; a spicy, fanciful gift which will encourage a niche category of man to adore a woman.
I would actually, like to attend a dinner party in which this was served. Dessert is often a tasty, yet boring, accumulation of fat/starch/sugar/butter. Jalapeno chocolate does arouse curiosity: I would like to taste one or two tiny bites – accompanied by port. Few would crave a third bite.
Short of what I REALLY want, these would be acceptable. Totally acceptable.

Yes, me too. I think that would be highly entertaining. “Oh, look, a little bonbon.”
I speak from experience. Once I was at a restaurant where my meal featured the cutest, teensiest little pepper on the side. I ate it in one bite.
A moment later I was ready to break the glass in the fire alarm so I could train the hose on my mouth.
As I was saying, NO!
Seriously Miss Neo, I don’t know why you let these har man questions trouble that purty little head.
No. Nada. Nein. Nyet. NFW.
I miss the See’s Candy shops back in The Peoples Republic of LA. Evil. Totally EVIL. See’s truffles…Ahhhhh…
No. But i’ve discovered a pretzel and pecan with a melted rolo on it that’s the schiznit.
Ugh! I hate gift list like this – a lot of expensive gadgets and a few extravagances that only people in NYC would take seriously. And did you get that he has a place in Telluride? I’m not sure all those references to his Telluride caretakers, his custom luge, or the western wear for his Telluride new years ever party were enough.
ONLY the ones that are deep fat fried. (The jalapenos, not the men)
Sometimes sweet and spicy is good. There’s a pistachio brittle with chili pepper in it that’s made by a pistachio farm/winery near Alamogordo, NM that is fannnnnnnn…tastic.
I’ve never eaten jalapenos dipped in chocolate, but dark chocolate with chile suits my taste buds. My favorite way to eat jalapenos is to open a jar of home canned peppers stuffed with sauerkraut and minced garlic.
Not no, but f—no. Abso-freaking-lutely not. No.

Ah! A gourment after my own heart! Tell me, do you also enjoy cheap baloney fried by holding it down with a fork in a frying pan without oil? That and cold pork ‘n beans was Sunday night dinner in my college days.
Kraut, garlic and home-canned peppers! And some people claim there is no God!
I definitely agree that the author of the piece comes across as a jerk — did you notice that he has a place in Telluride?
However, chocolate jalapeé±os sound very, very good.
Also, I definitely agree with texexec about the Lucero’s pistachio brittle from north of Alamogordo. Fantastic! In fact, after reading his comment, my wife and I broke out the last of the “red chile nut brittle” we bought there last month.
Yum!
Do *women* even want chocolate-covered jalapenos?? This reminds me of grade school when we all gagged on the thought of ketchup on ice cream.
Heh.
For $60? If you bought that for me and I was married to you – I’d divorce you for that piece of stupidity alone.
j/k
Let’s just say that you can get a fairly sizable bag of jalapenos which I buy all the time for about $1.50.
Grab your favorite chocolate bar.
Take two bites and call it good.
Now that’s conservative. The writer is obviously liberal.
Same thing with the Samsung phone. I got my Android FREE. He’s recommending a $200 phone.
Idiot liberal 🙂
Yes I would.

DJ,
I gave up baloney many moons ago, but that is how I cook bacon…. keep the strips pressed against the skillet so all the fat turns crispy and ever so slightly burnt. A bit of charred carbon of animal fat is a delicious treat. Better living through carbonization of animal fat is the new wave.

No. NO. NO NO
Not at ALL!
I trust I’ve cleared that up.
