Talk:Lemon drop pepper

Another error
The article states that in Peru it is known as "illu uchu", however that's not true. Its common name in Peru is Ají limo. It is possible that this ají is known as Illu uchu in other languages (e.g. Quechua), but most people don't use that term. Spanish is the most widely spoken language in Peru. By far. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:14D:4B82:EF30:511C:9DF3:6D5C:93BE (talk) 00:33, 16 August 2023 (UTC)

Move proposal

 * Move to Lemon drop pepper, to match other chili articles. See Category:Chili peppers. Badagnani (talk) 04:47, 7 August 2008 (UTC)


 * If the upper proposal isn't going to happen, at least move the article to Lemon Drop (pepper), the D is written with a capital. Although Lemon Drop pepper is even better. --Schredas (talk) 12:12, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Wrong!
The reference in the first sentence that identifies Lemon Drop and Aji Limon is incorrect. Aji Limon is species C.chinense and is probably a corruption of Aji Limo, the red variation of Aji Mochero, popularly known as Aji Limon. The reference and alternate name should be removed.

 * According to the writer William Woys Weaver "Several seed companies that sell ‘Aji Límo’ have renamed it. In fact, many years ago, when the pepper first came into circulation in the United States, its name was mistakenly written as aji limón (“lemon pepper”), which may be why its common commercial name is ‘Lemon Drop.’". Please see.
 * The aforementioned 'Ají Limón' does not exist in Peru, what you call 'Ají Limón' is just a yellow variant of 'Ají limo' called 'Mochica'. Marcomogollon (talk) 06:25, 30 June 2022 (UTC)
