Yes. At least I did last year. I grew a big, bushy tabasco plant in a pot on my patio, let them ripen to red, and used them in salsa. It was excellent. The heat sneaks up on you, growing and then lingering.

Generally no. However cooking does kill of any bacteria on the peppers, so if you are eating them both raw and unwashed there is a marginally higher risk of getting a stomach upset, but only if there is any unpleasant bacteria on the peppers to begin with.

Any clean fresh vegetable is healthiest when raw. Heat tends to destroy vitamins and minerals.
