Its not so people who can't handle spice can eat more, it's so that companies making industrial quantities of salsa, etc. can get a more consistent spice level but the same jalapeno flavor by using a mild pepper and adding capsaicin as needed

Which isn't to say its good or normal, shit sucks

Then just use bell peppers and add more capsaicin

Bell peppers don't really taste like jalapenos, they lack any of the grassy jalapeno flavor

then use bell peppers and grass

White people do anything to avoid adding spice

Why use bell peppers? Use bells and peppercorns

but then they cant legally tell people it has jalapeno in it, nor do they probably taste the same. Could probably get it pretty close though I admit

swindled consumers when they realize they finally found the one piece in their adulterated salsa

capsaicin extracts have a hideous chemical flavor, it's better to just use peppers at the level you want
