Paprika is both an excellent spice, in several different varieties, and very good for you. A Hungarian scientist won a Nobel prize in the early years of the last century by exploring the benefits of Vitamin C derived from paprika.

@Brynn, I'm shocked to hear that about Hungarian paprika, though. I hope the firms that have been mixing the South American kind in with theirs are fined huge sums--can you find out if any penalties are levied?
