Of course it is. Why wouldn't it be?
Now, if whether you actually *wanted* to eat it or not is another issue...

As a member of the Solanaceae family, the
stems and leaves are likely to be poisonous.

Regardless, he asked about the interior - the ribs and seeds - which
are NOT poisonous. I don't know why anyone would want to seek them
out to eat them, but if a little bit of rib gets into my diced green
peppers, it doesn't bother me.

Eating the core is fine but if you eat the seeds you could easily
become pregnant.

Mostly, I eat green peppers uncooked or stuffed. The ribs and
seeds don't a great texture and they are best removed to leave
space for stuffing. I think worries about the edibility stem
from the use of hot peppers where the hotness seems concentrated
in the ribs and seeds.

Well... the OP asked about the core, not the stem or leaves.
And since we don't generally eat the stems or leaves, who cares?

I ws merely pointing out that the OP's question
was not at all unreasonable.
