   I love this comic but I can’t abide the misspelling of Habanero. Unlike the Jalapeño, from which this error likely originates, the former champion of hot peppers uses a regular n, and is also pronounced accordingly. I blame several celebrity chefs who proliferated the mispronunciation in the early 2000s (lookin’ at you, Bobby!)

    Still less sad than how he ends up in Carlo Collodi’s original version.
