Hi Dave,

 DD> However, if it's a stress caused or aspirin/Alleve, etc. caused ulcer

 RH> IIRC, it was caused by NSAIDs so he has to leave chilis alone.

 DD> I had that happen with Alleve. Didn't realize what was going on until
 DD> I passed out from lack of blood and woke up in the E.R. with a bag of
 DD> blood in one arm and a bag of Nexium in the other. Once the ulcers
 DD> were healed I tossed my supply of Alleve and went back to eating
 DD> chilies.

I don't know what his wake up call was but it has been some years since
he found out about it.

OTOH, I like them. Probably had them for the first time when we were in
AZ, got some nice home made tamales from a friend one year around
Christmas. She said that the people she used to work with made them at
that time of year & sold them as a fund raiser. Our daughter Deborah was
in a National Guard (She retired with 21 years active duty in August.)
unit that was heavily Mexican-American in the Phoenix area. They had a
tamale making day every year around Christmas, stocking everybody's
freezers for the year. She gifted me with some a couple of times when we
came out; I put them in the camper's freezer until we got home and
enjoyed them sporadically thru out the year.

 DD> Enchiladas, now. That's a different story.

They're good too, as are chimichangas. Probably my least favorite
Mexican "street food" (hand held)  would be tacos as they fall apart too
easily with the crisp, corn shell. Makes a mess all over the place; I'd
rather eat it at home, over a plate to catch the fall out.
