Uncle Bill,
One of my Hispanic Friends at work came up to me today and said, "I hear that you like hot peppers. Do you want some
HOT peppers?"
I asked, "Are they hotter than Habaneros?"
He smiled as he handed me the bag....
My eyes got big as I recognized these beauties as "Carolina Reapers!"
If you are not familiar with "Carolina Reapers,"
let me say that Habanero's register at between 100,000-300,000 on the Scoville scale.
These bad boys are rated at 1,569,300 on the Scoville scale!
I'm going to harvest the seeds, using gloves, of course.
I can send you some seeds if you wish; In time for Spring Planting!
Let me know.
And, if anyone else wants some seeds, I'll have plenty to send your way!
PM me....
I love to share pain!
Best,
Scott

Can't wait to try them out in my usual Friday night boiled peanuts....
I told him that I'd have a gallon of milk on hand.
He said that to sip on hot coffee would be better to kill the heat.
I guess that we'll see....
