Guilty of that as well

Well, I dont ever drink vinegar.. but I do use it with some oil for salad dressing. Good tasting and alot healthier than most any other dressing.

Yep sounds like habanero peppers. I grow them yearly. I cannot eat them whole, but I've seen many people just pop one in and eat it like candy! I'm like WTF!?!?!?

One small piece and my mouth burns for 25 minutes. I cook with them, use 'em whole. Just hope too many don't rupture, then Dad has to eat the whole batch of whatever was made.

When I was a kid, my Dad thought it would be funny to give me some to drink. (Think 0rion and buttermilk ) Thing is, I didn't hate it I won't 'drink it, but have on occasion taken a swig here and there. And oil and vinegar is my first choice for salad dressing

So if I wanted to grow some. Crack one open dry the seeds and plant them?

or just buy seeds

I guess my point was some people grow them different and I didnt know if these were a cross of something. If so I would want to keep these. If its just the same as picking up seeds sure.

anyone know what holds the title for hottest pepper right now?

The Bhut Jolokia (ghost chili) typically holds that honor, although there are a few in the same category claiming to be even hotter, although I dont know much about them: the naga viper and the Trinidad Moruga Scorpion.

Doing anything with any of these peppers is for all intents and purposes impractical. They're so hot that putting it in any food will make it more of an eating challenge than anything pleasurable, even for those who like hot food. I've never eaten a ghost chili directly, only some small tastes of sauce made with it. Painfully hot if you take in too much. And it is hot enough it will abolustely tear up any part of you it touches, inside or out. Your whole system would burn from one end to the other.

Alot of times hybrid plants won't take if you replant their seeds.

The Habaneros are sold around here in the local nurseries. You should be able to find them at most places that sell garden vegetable plants, and it's not too late to plant some.

I've never tried from seeds, maybe your idea would work but it's lte for this season. Mine start turning orange in late August/early September. These effing things are so hot, I'm usually waiting for the cops to show up around harvest time, since it's like they should be illegal!

[Zapper2003]

I prefer the flavor a chili over a jalapeno or habanero. Habaneros smell like wolf pussy IMO.

When I cook with them whole, they add a nice roasty flavor.

I like Hungarian Hot Wax peppers...I grow these in my garden - eat them raw, cooking with them removes the heat

[INMY01TA]

Damn I love hot peppers. Jalepenos, bannana peppers whatever. Love mexican food too! Jalepenos burn my ass the next day tho.

^^^I love the peppers also. And, I guess I'm lucky since I've never felt the heat the next day, like I hear so many do.
