first time i accidently got burned by peppers, was when my grand mother had been cutting them by the sing and a glass was there....remedy: tablespoon of sugar to rest on the tongue. works wonders.
Haha WHAT? Anything "hotter"? These things are not hot at all. Dude, your taste buds are broken.
Exactly, quite impossible to enjoy from any spicy stuff.
It looks like a paprika. (and is probably as hot as one too =P)
That is what we call it here, it is said to be not hot at all, 0 in hot scale
Yes, because it isn't. Well, sometimes they can have a strong taste, but it's not hot.
I have a whole row growing in the garden of bell peppers. The home grown garden bell peppers can have a strong taste, but as the wiki article states, they lack the ability to produce capsaicin to make them hot.
The only time I had experience of unintentional habinero pepper eating was eating chinese food at work. Every Thursday is chinese day where nearly the entire plant orders chinese for lunch. They put the peppers in with the rice if you get fried rice. I don't eat the peppers, but occasionally, you will have a sliver that you don't see. It's not bad in the mouth, but if you catch it in the back of the throat, yeeouuuccchh!

Kev's gardening update: Half my capsicum peppers are rotten, apparently because I've been over-watering them. I'm shit at gardening.
The tomatoes in the greenhouse are doing OK, but they grew a couple of extra offshoots that I didn't see until it was too late, so they're growing too many fruit with not enough sunshine, so no doubt they'll either be tiny or they won't ripen in time - summer seems to be over already judging by this week's chilly weather.
Ah well, there's always next year, and the composter should've done its business by then.
I still have 3 of those mini atomic bombs left. I have no idea what to do with them...I really don't have guts left to try eat them...one experience was enough. 
Maybe I could give them to the annoying neighbour...but then they would sue me for a manslaughter

Hey, thanks for the garden update. My update is, I pick a tomato and throw it in the compost. Next tomato, compost. Again and again and again, until I finally find about 1 good out of 8. It was a very up/down year this summer with temps in the 90's (F of course
), then dropping in the 70's the next. I knew that was going to happen since back in the early spring it was 80 F, then the next day it took me over 8 hours to dig our cars out of the snow. Crazy weather.You don't have any paint that needs stripped off of anything, do you?
Habaneros aren't anywhere near the hottest peppers out there.
For one, check out India's "bhut jolokia" or "ghost chili."

1,000,000+ scovilles. More than twice as hot as a habanero.

Lol. No.
Could be, not an expert in peppers. But does it really care if you shoot yourself in the head with a pistol or a cruise missile? Even the second strongest was stronger than me
The stuff I carry at work is 2M Scovilles. I was sprayed with it during training, and that stuff really is hot (when you have in your eyes, nose, mouth, throat, lungs...).
Oh, don't get me wrong. Habaneros are devilishly hot. Cabot makes a great extra sharp white cheddar with habanero flakes in it. Holy crap.
Hot cheese :jawdrop: What next, spacecraft that is actually reasonable and cost effective to explore other galaxies?
Fueled by hot peppers
. Oh, hot pepper cheese is the best. Nothing like a heated ham sandwich with hot pepper cheese on it. I just took the kids to the local cheese house where they make it right there. I was looking for one thing, hot pepper cheese
. Some how I wound up walking out with bags and bags full of candy and cookies 
.It is great how different things tickle different people's taste, richness of this world 
I never had heard from such thing as pepper cheese before, but it looks like to be something some like very much, not like mämmi, nobody likes mämmi

hah, only Finnish-specific food I've had is the very, very salty licorice you guys have. it was... different.
Though it's not "regular" salt, which would be natrium. It's ammonium chloride, which of course is a salt as well. Sounds nasty but tastes great
:ices_rofl my dad had gastric bypass surgery and now he can eat habanero peppers like grapes
This would be from Racer Y's territory....
For those of you who have lived in Texas, you know how true this is. They actually have a chili cook-off about the time Halloween comes around. It takes up a major portion of a parking lot at the San Antonio city park. The notes are from an inexperienced chili taster named Frank, who was visiting from Springfield, IL.
Frank: "Recently, I was honored to be selected as a judge at a chili cooking contest. The original person called in sick at the last moment and I happened to be standing there at the judge's table asking for directions to the Coors Light truck, when the call came in. I was assured by the other two judges (native Texans) that the chili wouldn't be all that spicy and, besides, they told me I could have free beer during the tasting, so I accepted." Here are the scorecards from the advent: (Frank is Judge #3)
Chili # 1 Eddie's Maniac Monster Chili...
Judge # 1 -- A little too heavy on the tomato. Amusing kick.
Judge # 2 -- Nice, smooth tomato flavor. Very mild.
Judge # 3 -- (Frank) What the hell is this stuff?! You could remove dried paint from your driveway. Took me two beers to put out the flames. I hope that's the worst one. These Texans are crazy!
Chili # 2 Austin's Afterburner Chili...
Judge # 1 -- Smoky, with a hint of pork. Slight jalapeno tang.
Judge # 2 -- Exciting BBQ flavor; needs more peppers to be taken seriously.
Judge # 3 -- Keep this out of the reach of children. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to taste besides pain. I had to wave off two people who wanted to give me the Heimlich maneuver. They had to rush in more beer when they saw the look on my face.
Chili # 3 Ronny's Famous Burn Down the Barn Chili...
Judge # 1 -- Excellent firehouse chili. Great kick. Needs more beans.
Judge # 2 -- A beanless chili, a bit salty, good use of peppers.
Judge # 3 -- Call the EPA. I've located a uranium spill. My nose feels like I have been snorting Drano. Everyone knows the routine by now. Get me more beer before I ignite. Barmaid pounded me on the back, now my backbone is in the front part of my chest. I'm getting pie-eyed from all of the beer...
Chili # 4 Dave's Black Magic...
Judge # 1 -- Black bean chili with almost no spice. Disappointing.
Judge # 2 -- Hint of lime in the black beans. Good side dish for fish, or
other mild foods; not much of a chili.
Judge # 3 -- I felt something scraping across my tongue, but was unable to taste it. Is it possible to burn out taste buds? Sally, the barmaid, was standing behind me with fresh refills. That 300-lb. woman is starting to look HOT...just like this nuclear waste I'm eating! Is chili an aphrodisiac?
Chili # 5 Lisa's Legal Lip Remover...
Judge # 1 -- Meaty, strong chili. Cayenne peppers freshly ground, adding considerable kick. Very impressive.
Judge # 2 -- Chili using shredded beef, could use more tomato. Must admit the cayenne peppers make a strong statement.
Judge # 3 -- My ears are ringing, sweat is pouring off my forehead, and I can no longer focus my eyes. I farted and four people behind me needed paramedics. The contestant seemed offended when I told her that her chili had given me brain damage. Sally saved my tongue from bleeding by pouring beer directly on it from the pitcher. I wonder if I'm burning my lips off It really pisses me off that the other judges asked me to stop screaming. Screw those rednecks.
Chili # 6 Pam's Very Vegetarian Variety...
Judge # 1 -- Thin, yet bold vegetarian variety chili. Good balance of spices and peppers.
Judge # 2 -- The best yet. Aggressive use of peppers, onions, and garlic. Superb.
Judge # 3 -- My intestines are now a straight pipe filled with gaseous, sulphuric flames. I pooped on myself when I farted and I'm worried it will eat through the chair! No one seems inclined to stand behind me anymore. I need to wipe my butt with a snow cone.
Chili # 7 Carla's Screaming Sensation Chili...
Judge # 1 -- A mediocre chili with too much reliance on canned peppers.
Judge # 2 -- Ho-hum; tastes as if the chef literally threw in a can of chili peppers at the last moment. **I should take note that I am worried about Judge # 3 He appears to be in a bit of distress, as he is cursing uncontrollably.
Judge # 3 -- You could put a grenade in my mouth, pull the pin, and I wouldn't feel a thing. I've lost sight in one eye, and the world sounds like it is made of rushing water. My shirt is covered with chili, which slid unnoticed out of my mouth. My pants are full of lava to match my shirt. At least during the autopsy, they'll know what killed me. I've decided to stop breathing; it's too painful. Screw it; I'm not getting any oxygen anyway. If I need air, I'll just suck it in through the 4-inch hole in my stomach.
Chili # 8 Karen's Toenail Curling Chili...
Judge # 1 -- The perfect ending, this is a nice blend chili. Not too bold, but spicy enough to declare its existence.
Judge # 2 -- This final entry is a good, balanced chili. Neither mild, nor hot. Sorry to see that most of it was lost when Judge # 3 farted, passed out, fell over, and pulled the chili pot down on top of himself. Not sure if he's going to make it. Poor fella, wonder how he'd have reacted to really hot chili.

Lol. That was funny as hell
Try to eat a Jalapeño without being converted in pepper, it is a lot more hotter than with pepper
