banana peppers

At lunch today I had a sandwich (all veggie on whole grain!).  The attendant had put banana peppers on the sandwich without my knowledge.  I don't dislike banana peppers but never order them because I prefer my sandwich without them.  Well, after discovering them, it was more trouble to remove them, so I just left them and ate them.  So, now my GERD is on fire.  Short lesson for me:  my GERD cannot tolerate banana peppers!
