I ain’t afraid of no ghost chili…

I discovered this on Digg..

There is this pepper they apparently use to cure stomach issues in India and they are saying it was named the world’s hottest pepper. This means that I can no longer freely exclaim that I have, as a child and adult, always taken pride in eating the hottest pepper in the world like candy.

It is called the “bhut jolokia” or the ghost chili. I think my favorite part of the article is this quote:
“When you eat it, it’s like dying.”

I’ve never been hungrier in my life. Someone get me one of these things. I’m dying to try it.
