I also tend to favor savory and peppery over sweet...

I'm not sure what you mean by "peppery", but if you like hot spicy snacks, give this place a try:

Southwest Specialty Food

The Spontaneous Combustion Ground Habanero is very versatile and adds some nice heat and flavor to just about anything. The Ass Kickin' Snack Mix on this page is very addictive, and the Ass Kickin' Peanuts on the same page are quite good too.

I modified this recipe from Emeril Lagasse to use chopped Ass Kickin' Peanuts instead of pecan pieces, and it turned out great! Chicken gets done, but is still moist, and the peanuts add a nice amount of heat.

Sorry to get off topic...

Some people love the “super hot” stuff. Not I. It doesn’t take much, about the level of jalapeno, for the heat to make the food begin to taste bitter, and there is no gastronomic point in goosing the heat past that level. Maybe this is a genetic thang (like the ability to roll the tongue, which I can but some can’t).
