  1. I put habaneros in food, but I don't eat hot peppers by themselves.

  4. Ghost pepper. I'll try anything. I have yet to come across the Carolina Reaper or the Trinidad Moruga Scorpion, but I would try them...with caution. I had a co-worker that brought in peppers one day. She didn't know what they were, as her tenants planted them and offered them to her. She was afraid to eat them, but I tried. One of them was so hot my eyes were watering. The hottest food I ever ate was actually Korean. I have no idea when I ordered, but the burn was so bad I couldn't taste anything.

  12. I Love long Hots, nuked then sauteed in a little oil and garlic, Dago-style. I dice up a few habaneros in there to make them hotter. like swishy, ill try anything hot.

  14. Serrano or poblano . I make salsa with 5 of these in it and strips of roasted poblano. It’s hot but I can handle it.

  15. None. I grew up eating Portuguese food and never even heard of piri-piri until I was more than 50 years old. No peppers in anything I eat.

  17. We have a habanero plant in the garden, along with some more palatable chillies. Habaneros are almost too hot for me.

  18. Im not sure the hottest I've tried, but it was pretty mild on the scale of things. My tongue is numb and my face starts to sweat if a jalapeno's seeds aren't removed.

    Funniest hot sauce name I saw in a store: Devil's Crotch😂

  21. Part of my growing up years were with a Korean and a Vietnamese sister-in-laws, so I was introduced to Kimchi at a young age. (fresh, not fermented). Love that stuff! We grow Hobinaros, Cayenne, Dragon Peppers, Banana Peppers, Jalapenos, and Serrano's. Put one or the other in most dishes, or a hot drink with chicken broth and garlic, keeps us healthy.

  22. Black pepper. LOL

  23. Reapers...they're nice, pleasant afterburn, though I'll admit I've had Ghost peppers I've rated as being hotter.

    The hottest sauce I've tasted yet was an anonymous Chinese thing, no indication as to what the peppers were, but it was seriously, seriously hot (one drop in a gallon of soup made it too hot for the rest of the family....so, all for me!), and it had such a pleasant afterburn, like a piquant hot battery acid..that bottle lasted me about a year and a half of careful use.

    (I should add, I tend to use Jamaican hot pepper sauce - mostly made from scotch bonnets - the way other people use tomato sauce/ketchup...)

  25. Ground black pepper that's 10 years old (i.e. tasteless).

  28. How the Habanero Pepper Got its Name. Habaneros are a variety of the Capsicum chinense species, which includes the 7-Pot varieties, the Bhut Jolokia, the Scotch Bonnet, and many others.

  29. I have tried ghost and scorpion peppers. Not a whole lot of fun. When I lived in the Caribbean, I ate Scotch Bonnet peppers in food all the time.
