I did that for years - cooked flamingly spicy dishes in a cast iron skillet. Then one day I served a friend a pork chop cooked in that skillet with a tablespoon of apple butter on it - and there was enough capsaicin residual in the pores of the iron that she couldn't eat it! See, even though one may clean an iron skillet well, the microscopic pores in the iron can retain things like capsaicin. It is true, though, that bell peppers have no heat. Maybe there was something else he cooked with them that you're allergic to or had more fire in it than he realized.

Check with your doctor next time you visit, and don't eat any peppers. Regards, Dan It sounds to me like you are allergic to peppers.

I can't think of any other reasons why you would react that way to a bell pepper. they aren’t spicy, they are sweet. either he tricked you into eating spicy peppers thinking maybe your reaction to them was mental by telling you they were bell peppers or perhaps you are allergic.
