    1. A good friend of mine uses a picture of Ralph as his avatar. He is from Indiana, and has been known to overindulge in many substances, including peppers.

  1. Carolina Reapers are considered the hottest chili peppers in the world. They are rated up to 1.57 million units on the Scoville scale

      1. In college my roommate threw some hot peppers in a wok and turned our apartment into mace chamber. Who kew those oils were volatile?
