Sf is saying it contains sweet capsicum. In the US, we call all the
capsicum "peppers." We recognize hot or sweet (meaning not hot).
There are several styles of "not hot." You may be more familiar with
the Italian peppers, often used for frying, grilling, cooking and
eaten fresh. They actually do have a somewhat sweet taste.
