I was “today” years old when I discovered poutine. I’d had fries with gravy before but poutine is much better! Where has this been all of my life?

Actually a bit of a fusion: birria poutine at the local Biergarten, SO GOOD!

      how hot is it?

      That varies from farm to farm, and how it is grown. Many sell mild, or hot.

      they’re not pickled or anything just raw peppers chopped up?

      Typically they are fire roasted when purchased, then peeled at home.

        ooo they sound good!

        i usually prefer a little hotter but if those were around everywhere they would definitely go on just about everything I ate lol.

        what’s the weirdest thing youve had them in? ice cream or anything of that sort? :)

          Anaheim chile is a close analog for NM chiles. They are not the same, but work when the latter is not available (I lived in PA and Maryland without access to green chile for 19 long years).

          Green chile peanut brittle might be the weirdest sweet. I have also had green chile lollipops, with and without a scorpion. Most of that kind of stuff is only sold at the tourist traps, so I never really see it unless I am giving someone a tour. I cannot recall ever having green chile ice cream, I would try it though.

          Savory-wise green chile fettuccine Alfredo, or a domino’s thin crust pizza with white sauce, feta, spinach, and green chile. It is something my Pathfinder group’s coworker came up while they were trying to order a vegetarian pizza.

          Here in New Mexico basically all of the restaurants have green chile (some have red) on the menu. You can have it added to just about anything.
