Has anyone ever tasted guasacaca? If so, how was it?

Question

I saw this on tv last night on the Food Network. The section on guasacaca was so funny, as you can imagine! Does anyone know what it tastes like? Can you taste the bell peppers a lot? Please let me know, 'cause I wanna make this stuff but I really hate green peppers, so if the pepper flavor is strong, I'll pass. But if not, I'm game!

Answer 2

not strong on the green pepper side, I dont care for green peppers either, but the sauce is good

Answer 3

It's really good. When a place in my neighborhood introduced me to it, I ate there almost every day for a month.

It needs a better sounding name if it's going to catch on in the US though.
