Dys, if you ask nicely, I will post one or two of these to you.......

"The Dorset Naga chilli is almost twice as hot as the current world record holder. It has been cultivated by curry lovers Joy and Michael Michaurd at their home in West Bexington near Dorchester."

"Last year Joy and Michael sent some of the crop to a US laboratory for testing. It's thought the chilli experts there couldn't believe the readings they were getting from the pepper samples.

It registered an average score of 923,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU), which is 346,000 more than the current Guinness world record holder, the Red Savina."

This is entirely ludicrous to me. I should want to destroy the tissue in my mouth why?

HOT has nothing to do with quality chili, it's only the taste that matters.

Methinks they could pulp these down and use the liquid as paint stripper.

So you don't want me to send you some, Dys? You could always chop them up in a salad, for relatives that won't go home.

I agree.

I do, too . . . which is why i've always despised habaneros (sp?), which have a taste reminiscent of diesel fuel.
