Thanks, Zana and Worth.
I sort of suspected a snorkeling outfit might be fit. Really the Gueritos are not superhots though. Cayennes and Santakas are hot enough I won't try em raw. So far for chopping, scrubbing my fingers with a lemon or lime afterwards is good enough if I'm careful. Then I lick my fingertips to test if I got it all. Just thinking I have no idea how hard it is to peel a roasted chile.... I have a tendency to get my paws into stuff like that.

Worth, I have no idea if they even sell them up here, but for sure I'll keep an eye out. Crunchy pepper pickles are the best! Mexican food is pretty popular up here, but really it can't be the same as you get down there, just a small slice of it is all we get for sure..

I remember empanadas and arroz con pollo from Colombia, but don't know if they are the same as Mex or perhaps a bit different. I don't have a recipe, it was so long ago..
