Did you know there are 2 hotter types of pepper than the Ghost Pepper?

The Ghost is 1,000,000 units of SHU   (the heat scale for capsaisin)

The Green Pepper is zero. The Carolina Reaper, originally named the HP22B,[1] is a cultivar of chili pepper of the Capsicum chinense species. As of 2013, Guinness has dubbed it as the hottest pepper in the world, surpassing the previous record holder, the Trinidad moruga scorpion.

I mean who can eat a Carolina Reaper and live?
