The Ghost Pepper:The Spiciest Pepper In The World!
The Spiciest Pepper is from Northeastern India Bhut Jolokia,which translates into Ghost Pepper.There are also many other regional names in Asia.In the heat scale measurement called Scoville Heat Units (SHU), they significantly surpass all prior measured peppers with a rating over 1,000,000 units!A World Record attempt to eat the most of these hottest of chiles in the shortest time was made in early April 2009 by an Indian woman, Anandita Dutta Tamuly, who ate 51 in two minutes in Jorhat, India! It is not yet made official (as of late April 2009), but is expected to earn her the Guinness record.But beware of eating even the tiniest sliver of one of these chiles; people who have eaten them their entire lives in Northeastern India say eating them raw is "like dying" and advise "outsiders" not to even attempt to eat them. Although one might expect them to perhaps cause some stomach irritation, on the contrary, they have long been used as a cure for stomach ailments in that part of India. It is definitely not recommended that you try eating 51 in two minutes!!
