Massive peppers. I would not expect three Cubanelle peppers to equal 1lb, but they do. And it’s fine, because they are bright and fresh, but these peppers are gargantuan. Nothing like the reviews where they received 6 peppers

This is a great chili pepper for making tiger-skin green peppers.

I am a kidney patient and need to drink coriander water often. Coriander with roots is better, but it is not easy to find coriander with roots. I am very satisfied with the coriander I received this time. It has roots, is plentiful, and is fresh.
