Strategy
Jalapenos can be good last-minute saves, since they can be planted behind an incoming wave, clearing the entire lane. Also, since a Jalapeno will melt ice as well as destroy a Zomboni, it makes a great addition to any levels with them. It takes two Jalapenos to kill a Gargantuar, so keep that in mind. You can also use a Jalapeno on a Gargantuar when it throws its imp, as it will be destroyed along with the Gargantuar.

When dealing with Dr. Zomboss, the Jalapeno will destroy incoming giant Ice Balls, as well as do some damage to the villain's giant robot.
