Anyone who has ever peeled a jalapeno or made a chili relleno knows the answer to this question. Yes. That is why a lot of people prefer to buy hot sauces from websites like http://www.hotsaucehillbilly.com. The majority of the pain comes from the seeds inside the pepper and you should be especially careful when handling these (note that if you enjoy peppers but think they are too hot you can eat everything but the seeds to save yourself some pain).

Word to the wise, if you are looking to make your own, just use gloves when handling the peppers and DO NOT touch your eyes. The juices from the peppers can burn your eyes easier than your hands.

Hope that helps.
