Pipe SmokerCarolina reapers dethroned
Why?
"Pepper X is set to take the crown for the world's hottest pepper, dethroning the official record holder the Carolina Reaper.
The pepper averages a whopping 3.18 million Scoville heat units and has been developed over 10 years. For reference, Jalapenos are a mild 10,000 to 20,000 Scoville units…"

GT-40DOCI feel REAL sure that I will not be testing/eating any of Pepper X!!

Expert308I won't even go beyond the Jalapeno. I don't get why anybody would want to eat any of those super hot ones, other than maybe to prove their manhood. A guy I used to work with makes his own salsa. He used to complain that he had to grow his own peppers for it because he couldn't find hot enough ones in the store. He brought some of his salsa into the office once. Just being in the same room with it made my eyes water so bad I had to leave. Why?????

kx90That's just nuts.
I've had some really hot wings on a dare (Homicide sauce) when I was younger.
After about 7 wings I couldn't take it anymore, my buddy beat me out by two wings.
The hottest I will go now is some Mango Habanero wings. They burn but they are so good.

GWbikerI had a biker chum in Harrisburg PA who would chomp on bell peppers and anything HOT that no one else could eat.
His farts would clear the room.
I think he's still alive.

If you search on YouTube for "Reaper pepper and Fireball" you'll find a video of a guy that eats three of them and then chugs Fireball Whiskey. It's pretty.

SIG 229RI always thought Mayan peppers were the hottest.
I like to chop up a bell pepper in black eyed peas, they are mild.
I used to work with a guy who would eat the ones that came in the orders of Church's fried chicken without anything else in his mouth.
I have seen my Grandfather and a friend eat fresh stewed corn or pintos with the little Chayenne peppers and they would have tears running out of their eyes. That is too much for me to deal with.

jhe888I like hot - at the Thai places, what they call "spicy" is fine, and what they call "Thai spicy" is generally about my limit depending on my mood. Habaneros are more than I like by themselves, but not by much.
But no way in hell would I even consider eating Pepper X, or a Reaper.

RAMIUSI'm all about this. I love hot peppers. I actually tried to order that one chip challenge chip, but they're not taking orders until October.
I have lots of violently hot sauces that I really enjoy. The hottest commercial sauce is Dave's insanity ghost pepper sauce. The others are all fresh homemade sauces with reapers.
Yes it hurts, but I like it. I can gargle with tobasco and other store sauces. It takes a lot for me to cry. I'm not trying to "prove" anything, I truly like the feeling.
I need to get some of this pepper x stuff.

zdog16OOOH YEAH I like it SPICY! Place I used to bartend at, the executive chef made a fantastic ghost pepper wing sauce that no one could eat but me. Fantastic going down but it was a little hard to walk for the first hour or so every morning after.
For ME:
DA/SA=Sig 9mm or HK P30 LEM 9
Striker fired= Glock 9mm
If it's a .45= 1911
Suppressed= HK in .45
I like anything in 10mm

Oz_ShadowI like to eat really spicy things but as I have aged, the colon and backdoor remind me I shouldn't anymore.

There's a pretty fun Youtube show called Hot Ones that pairs 10 hot sauces on wings that are progressively hotter and an interview with a celebrity. The show now has it's own sauces, one of which is "The Last Dab" made with Pepper X.
From firstwefeast.com, home of the Hot Ones show:
"If you're a fan of Hot Ones and have wondered how you'd fair against the show's hottest sauce, The Last Dab, now's your time to find out. The soul-scorching sauce—developed by mad-scientist chilehead Smokin' Ed Currie of PuckerButt Pepper Co.—is available exclusively at Heatonist.com.
The sauce delivers real flavor through the heat thanks to a unique blend of mustard, ginger root, coriander and turmeric. Its punch comes from the diabolical “Pepper X,” developed by Ed Currie almost a decade ago, with The Last Dab being its first use in a production sauce. Pepper X is twice as hot as Smokin Ed’s Carolina Reaper, the current Guinness World Record holder for “The Hottest Pepper in the World.”"
