I might have made a mistake........ (Naga Jolokia chiles)


 
The topic of hot chiles came up at dinner tonight and I did a little digging while waiting for the food to arrive. The Naga Jolokia has been dethroned twice over as hottest pepper. The Carolina Reaper is currently listed by Guinness as the world's hottest pepper, but there's another that's claimed to be 900,000 Scoville units hotter than the Carolina Reaper. The lowly habanero is positively mild in comparison.
