Does bell pepper have vitamin k?
Asked by Wiki User
Bell Peppers have very little Vitamin K.
One medium Green Pepper has about 8.8 mcg, while one medium Red Bell Pepper has about 5.8 mcg.
Yellow Bell Peppers have 0 mcg.
So, if you are on a low Vitamin K diet (for instance, if you take blood thinners), bell peppers are, for most people, a good substitute for other high Vit. K content vegetables.
Do red bell peppers come from green bell peppers?
Asked by Wiki User
Yes red bell peppers come from green bell peppers, as do most bell peppers. They develop their color variances and flavor as they ripen. If you are growing bell peppers make sure you choose a variety you want, don't assume your green bell pepper will ripen into a lovely red as you may be disappointed and end up with a yellow or chocolate colored fruit. Variances are great and may vary immensely between (yellows, orange, reds, purple, and brown) Try growing the "Chianti Bell" It's a nice red bell pepper with a thick sweet hull. Yummmmmm :-)

Why does a yellow pepper taste sweeter than a green pepper?
Asked by Wiki User
There are many different types of peppers or chiles, but I assume this question is asking about bell peppers. A green bell pepper (which we often just refer to as a green pepper) is actually a fruit that is unripe. These peppers change colors as they ripen, going from yellow to orange and to red. They are sold in all these stages of ripening, causing us to refer to them as green, yellow, and red peppers as if they are different peppers.
As the bell pepper ripens, like many other fruits, its sugars start to develop. This is when some of the starches in the pepper are converted to simple sugars. Now, a bell pepper does not have as many sugars as, for instance, an apple, but it does have some. The riper the pepper, the sweeter it becomes. So, a yellow pepper is a bit sweeter than a green pepper, and a red pepper is sweeter than a yellow pepper.
How long do red bell peppers last unrefrigerated?
