Default Attention: Chili Heads


My seed catalogue says there is a new world's hottest chili pepper: it
is a cross between Ghost Pepper and red habanero. A mere
1,569,300 Scoville units. It is called Carolina Reaper Super-Hot
Pepper. "The fruity flavor has a hint of citrus with sweet,
chocolate-cherry undertones." Mature fruits are about the size of a
ping-pong ball. Be sure to rush right out and get some seeds!
Yum-yum

How many jalapenos/serranos does it take to overcome the antipathy of
that level of Scoville pain?

I don't know. You should check your health insurance to see if they
will pay to have a physician standing by while you indulge :-{

As if..... I'm sure the price of "health insurance" would be more
much more painful than indulging.

Even here in pepperville that would be a self-abuse chili.

I like "spicy" foods. But I just don't understand why anyone would want to eat something so hot that it numbs the mouth and throat and kills your tastebuds. I like the flavor with some heat, not just all heat and no flavor.

Just don't get it I guess.

There is some interesting science involved.

One of the episodes of this show had a segment centered on a hot chili
eating contest that both hosts participated in. If you scroll the
page, you'll find a brief bit from it.

Some people have been raised on hot foods and can take the heat. For
many others it is just the challenge of eating hotter peppers than you.
Just like my dad can beat up your dad or my penis is bigger than your
penis.

Hot salsa is too hot for me on tacos but I like pickled jalapenos on pizza.
