The sweet, spicy or both pepper is the perfect topping for pasta and pizza, an excellent addition to sandwiches, and a crunchy zest of a snack.
a love letter to banana peppers
withhold yourself as i cannot
but grace the pepper on my plate
tang it all in
one free topping — two tops
there’s three if you’re lucky to look
as myself i can’t spare any more
‘don’t go out to eat’
now there’s a rope for “luxury”
how ridiculous to deny entry
pepperoncini are delicious too
