Mild Yellow Peppers

Mild yellow peppers are a variety of the species *Capsicum annuum*, the same species as bell peppers and chili peppers. They are typically harvested when ripe and have a sweet, mild flavor with little to no heat. They are grown worldwide for culinary use.

Mild yellow peppers are used to add a sweet flavor, color, and texture to a variety of foods. They are often found in salsas, sauces, marinades, and as a fresh ingredient in salads and vegetable dishes. Their mild taste makes them versatile for many applications.

Mild yellow peppers are a source of vitamins, particularly vitamin C, and antioxidants. The FDA considers peppers to be Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) for their intended use as food. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated many food ingredients, but specific evaluations for mild yellow peppers as a distinct ingredient are not typically highlighted. Consuming them as part of a balanced diet is generally considered safe.
