Can anyone recommend from your experience another variety I can try next year, either from my friends' list above or a similar mild pepper that tastes like a chili?

I'll be growing some of the varieties you list above next year. The Habanada was tasty before, when I grew it.

I'll add that to the list and see about getting some seed for it! Thanks for suggesting it.
