Actually, I thought peppers/chillies (the capsicum-family) were nightshades. They're very close relatives if they aren't, poisonous, and native to the Americas only. If you don't eat tomatoes you should probably skip them too.

I have been eating a lot of chili. It's easy to cook and tastes good. The problem is that my current recipe calls for a jar of tomato sauce. At this point I am trying to get to a strict paleo diet, which for me includes the elimination of all nightshades.
