Disambig needed?

edit

Hey all,

I believe another common usage of the word pimento relates to the tree that produces allspice. Anyone think a disambig might be called for here? NickCT (talk) 06:54, 14 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

I think that's a pimenta not a pimento. Atypicaloracle (talk) 03:04, 29 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

‘Tis yet another example of Wikipedia’s USian viewpoint. Pimento outside the US is the pepper

lead section contradicts itself

edit

The lead sentence is A pimiento (Spanish pronunciation: [piˈmjento]) or pimento is any kind of pepper. and then two paras later we say The flesh of the pimiento is sweet, succulent, and more aromatic than that of the red bell pepper. If a pimiento is any kind of pepper, how can we be describing it as sweet, succulent, and more aromatic that a specific type of pepper? —valereee (talk) 13:58, 22 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

weird sentence?

"Some are green when immature and turn red when they reach maturity"

Don't ALL of them start out green? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:3037:604:FD13:C652:B5A6:3E9E:66C0 (talk) 12:24, 6 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
