[QUOTE="Cohiba, post: 1871849, member: 2550"] OMG.....can I tell you some stories about hot peppers!!! I'm probably one of the first few people to bring the habanero into Oklahoma during the late 1980's to the early 1990's. Waaaaay before anyone in Oklahoma knew what they were. I had a buddy in some of the same Biology classes at college. He liked to brag how during the summer break he would travel to Southern Mexico and Central America. His wife was from Panama and he was familiar with hot peppers......not my habaneros,at least not yet. I brought him sandwich bag full of orange habaneros one day and gave them to him in the Virology laboratory. The professor was lecturing and he decided to break one open, smell it and take a quick taste with the lick of his tounge. He broke the pepper open getting oil on his fingers,he smelled it and stated he had hotter peppers before. He started writing notes, later when the professor took a break from lecture...he put the pencil in his mouth...with the oil now wiped on the pencil. His eyes started to water and he wiped his eyes, putting oil in his eyes. In a few seconds he shot off to the restroom, 30 minutes later when lab was almost over he returned. He handed the bag of habaneros back to me. Some guys from India saw the peppers and wanted them to blend intp a curry for their chicken recipe.. A few days later I saw them and asked how was their chicken....they threw it away. It was too hot!!! Cohiba [/QUOTE]
