About bell pepper weight
A bell pepper's weight depends on wall thickness and lobes: the USDA medium pepper is 119 g, small ones 74 g, and large blocky ones 164 g. Red peppers usually outweigh green because they're left on the vine longer. Weigh when you're stuffing peppers and want them to bake evenly. (Source: USDA FoodData Central.)
