"It's much easier to appreciate White Pepper now that we know it did not lead to a final form in which Ween were just edge-less and overglossed" he wrote, "The band never gave in to the powers that be. He attributed the initial lukewarm reception of the album to its lack of profanity and increased accessibility, suggesting that it may have alienated much of the band's hardcore fans. In 2020, Stereogum 's Nate Rogers wrote a piece on the album for its 20th anniversary. They're kind of like Beck – they've always delivered – and also some of it is just so fucking juvenile." To me, White Pepper is an amazing snapshot and a great collection of songs. Jake Shears of Scissor Sisters named it one of his favorite albums of all time, stating: "I love the stew of what they do – they can be whimsical, they can be heavy – they're just incredible musicians and songwriters. Magnet included it at #15 on their list of the 60 best albums released between 19, and the album was included in the book 1,000 Recordings to Hear Before You Die in 2008. White Pepper was included on Creative Loafing 's list of the 101 best albums of the 2000s, while Glide magazine named it the 12th best album of the decade.
"Who Dat?" was also included in the Japanese version of the album.
