Bleagh......

...my ears are sufficiently plugged up to make me slightly dizzy, and they won't clear.  Two pseudephedrine tablets under the tongue (ack!  Foul taste!) have so far not helped.  I'll try two more in a minute, but I sense an impending high-test red curry somewhere in the immediate future.  About three whole habañeros ought to do the job, at a guess.

I'm seeing piquins rated 100,000 to 120,000 Scovilles, and habañeros 100,000 to 350,000.

Hm. Interesting. The ones I bought claim the 140,000. I wasn't aware there was that much variation. I'm going to have to find some of those 300K+ habeneros.

You want to get a deep orange one. The pale orange ones aren't that hot. The red ones aren't that hot either.

North Carolina has nice and hot habs. So does New Mexico. They're sort of weak up here in NH.

By nice, I mean they had a good flavour. By hot, well, up there with at least 275,000 Scovilles. :-)
