I read in a couple of places that red pepper or sweet red pepper is
high in antioxidants and nutrients. I want to know if that's the large
red BELL pepper in the produce section? They had it for $1.98 / pound.
Is that a reasonable price? Does it vary according to season? Does it
taste OK raw?

The sweet red is the same thing as
the red bell pepper. They taste great
raw, sweet and flavourful. You can
eat them raw on their own or in salads.
Cooking them is tasty too in soups,
stir fries, etc. They are also good as
an addition to sandwiches.
