I said it a few pages back. I couldn’t find anything online to support the claim. My mom and aunts always say it. Damn Jamaicans! LolI feel like this has been mentioned in here before but I’ve never heard this otherwise and couldn’t find anything with a quick Google search.
Somebody drop a gem on me.

I hate cookies! Closest thing i like too a cookie is a Chocolate Biscuit Preferably with Caramel in it.
Anyway,

No, it's not true. First of all, black pepper is a complex food composed of many different substances. No complex food that we eat stays inside our body whole and intact. Complex foods don't even get absorbed into our body as whole, intact foods. Instead, they are broken down into much smaller parts in our digestive tract before they ever get absorbed.
Therefore, at the very most, it would only be some isolated component of black pepper (not black pepper itself) that was absorbed into our body (via our bloodstream) and then stayed either in storage or in transit for a long period of time. However, this also is not the case. For example, one of the substances that can act as a type of irritant in black pepper (and provoke a sneeze, for example) is a well-studied alkaloid called piperine. In animal studies, researchers have found that it takes between 6—24 hours for over 90% of this substance to be cleared from the body. Other important substances found in black pepper, like the polysaccharides that have been shown to have potential immune-supportive properties, would also be readily metabolized.
For a food component to stay inside our body for any extended period of time, it would have to be stored inside some body tissue that kept it fairly strongly attached. Minerals found in food can sometimes be stored in this way when they become part of the bone matrix. It's possible for the bone matrix to hold on to some of its mineral content throughout the course of a lifetime. However, the whole, intact foods that we eat only serve as the initial carriers of these minerals from the outside world into our body. The foods themselves do not stay inside us undigested.

how much closer to medium rare can you get here without it being rare already...Would've liked the steak to be closer to medium-rare, but this was a tasty meal:
or dude just consumes tv dinnersSo as we all suspected, you don't even bother eating real food?
Steak would have benefited with an extra 60 seconds in the pan to meet my preference.how much closer to medium rare can you get here without it being rare already...
ah ok for some reason i was thinking leaning more towards rare still looks good thoughSteak would have benefited with an extra 60 seconds in the pan to meet my preference.
You want a pat on the head too ?When I was younger my mom said left over rice in your bowl will turn into pimples on your face.
No hard evidence tho
I did one google search last night and found the same article. Mans in here beating their chest to sound knowledgeable over a statement to get edaps and reps from strangers in a food thread. I though DC was different, but apparently he just one in the same.Its obvious from my posts I like pepper on my food but it does have side effects for some which include stomach issues/gastrointestinal disorders, skin disorders/skin dryness, & can even lead to difficult pregnancies. In rare rare cases accidentally inhaling plain old black or white pepper can cause death.
Also, the old wive's tale about black pepper staying in your body is true...
Funny people asking for proof... Do your own damn googles...
Soon as you let go of my swipe. I told you to do your own googles. Someone did it for you and gave you what you wanted and you're behaving ill tempered for not being right.Just quit while you’re behind, man. No need to subject everyone to your petulance.
...but that article didn’t even address the assertion you made.Soon as you let go of my swipe. I told you to do your own googles. Someone did it for you and gave you what you wanted and you're behaving ill tempered for not being right.
No you have reading comprehension problems. Just stop....but that article didn’t even address the assertion you made.
If asking someone to provide, Evidence/ Reasoning to a claim out of left field makes me the same, sure I am the same as the rest.You want a pat on the head too ?
