To the right you see a habanero pepper, 100-350 K Scoville units (Jalapeno is 2.5-8 K). I can eat 2 habeneros in one sitting and enjoy it. And what does not kill you can cure cancer. Hot dog! On the other hand, if I want something which is a little less spicey and has a more tangy, aromatic flavor, I really enjoy green Thai peppers. I'm the spicey ScienceBlogger.

It's one thing to get them down. It's when they re-emerge that they're at their most painful.
I'm not worthy! I'm not worthy! I can handle green Thai, but I have not yet been able to conquer the habanero. But Wilkins is right: it's like being born a genius and then bragging about your GRE scores. Grrrr.
Oh, you mean your other right!

What would really be convenient for these purposes would be insensitivity to lactobaccillus. Oh yeah, I went there.
