Amended:
'''Jalapeño poppers''' are [[jalapeño]] [[chile pepper|pepper]]s that have been hollowed out, stuffed with a mixture of [[cheese]], [[spices]], and sometimes ground meat, and then deep fried. They are served (usually with some kind of dip) as appetizers at some Mexican- or Southwest-themed bars and restaurants.

"Sleep deprivation is sometimes used as a method of torture."

Since sleep deprivation has all sorts of known unpleasant side-effects, a claim to the contrary really needs to be supported. I find it very hard to believe that sleep deprivation would be a useful treatment for mental illness, and so, without further elaboration, I think the above claim is dangerous.

: Actually, sleep deprivation is sometimes used in depression, but it is not a viable long-term alternative. It does increase dopamine levels and reduce overall depression in the short term, though. A quick search on PubMed will turn up several articles.
== sleep and wikipedians ==
anybody out here who cant sleep? I have been up all night on wiktionary adn its now0727local time. strange
: try reading [[Polyphasic sleep]], it's very interesting, especially if you're an insomniac :D. I'm wating for a good time to start, read it too late, missed a chance during spring break.
== Side effects may include ==
''Lack of sleep may also result in irritability, blurred vision, slurred speech, memory lapses, overall confusion, hallucinations, nausea, psychosis, and eventually death.''
It would be nice if the article specified how much lack of sleep one would need in order for these conditions to apply, and for how long one would need to lack sleep? I'm not much of an expert in it, but you probably aren't going to die if you get four hours of sleep one night, but it might make you pretty irritable the next day.
