Yeah... thinking outside the parasite box is what I call it.
Did the peppers have seeds though?
I've read a lot on here about white balls and sometimes people bust them open but don't find anything inside.
Thinking outside the parasite box, maybe it's a liver stone of some sort? Or something calcified too? Way back in the beginning I saw 1 or 2 but they were green. I didn't think it was possible because I don't have a GB either, but apparently the liver still produces them.
Calcium is one of the only few supplements I won't touch because of how it builds up.
