What 🌶️ hot pepper means
Vegetables are where innuendo is most concentrated: 🍆 almost never means dinner, and 🥒 gets pulled the same way. Unicode's formal name for U+1F346 is AUBERGINE; eggplant is the CLDR label. Straight uses survive too — 🥑 for brunch, 🥦 for eating well, 🌶️ for spicy in both the culinary and the suggestive sense, 🧄 and 🧅 for cooking posts.
Unicode tags this one hot, pepper and files it under Food & Drink → Vegetables.
