Yes, but it has Green Bell Pepper twice. And I am wondering what Scared Lotus is. How do they scare it? Doesn't that make it taste bad?

Reading about their offerings at Amazon, I'm a bit concerned that their descriptions for any foods may be inaccurate. There are just too many typos or spelling errors. What else are they getting wrong?
