    See if you can save it to the side and get a cheap usb microscope from somewhere. Then upload those pictures for us.

    Fungus comes in all shapes and sizes and colors. But yes you could be absolutely correct 👍 It is definitely interesting.

    Looks like calcium oxalate or calcium carbonate. It can happen if you had a lot of calcium in your soil or sometimes, it’s just genetics or a stress response. Think of it like a hot pepper kidney stone. they are harmless.

    Most likely cause is plant edema. Its basically a high humidity condition, inside of the pepper is humid.
