SOME LIKE IT HOT !!!

"A little goes a long ways"


Yes, we may be a little crazy, but so many people have asked us to grow some very HOT PEPPERS, that we just had to listen.  This all most ripe Habanaro pepper will turn a bright red, and until recently, it was considered the hottest edible pepper in the world.  For example, a jalapeno pepper is rated at around 3000 scovel units.  ( A system that gets higher as the pepper gets hotter.)   The pepper seen above is rated at 300,000 !!!!   But, a small amount in a big kettle of anything gives it more zing than heat.   The new "record" holder, called the GHOST comes in a 1,000,000 units.  And, to call it food is stretching the truth more than a little!  Although we do believe it would be a great natural pesticide, just as long as the people applying it wore protective clothes and goggles...maybe a full face and air filtration system too!  So if anyone ever trys to get you to bite into one....better think twice.  Oh, and milk helps kill the heat....water does little.   Field Reporter:  O'Beary
