<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\u2014<\/strong> VEGETABLES – PEPPERS<\/h4>\n<\/div>Carolina Reaper\u00ae<\/h1>\n
This extremely spicy pepper has been voted one of the hottest peppers in the world! The red variety can be recognized by its deep red, bumpy skin and its characteristic pointed tail. The yellow Carolina Reaper is a fruitier variety of the same type, with a bright yellow color and a slightly fresher flavor, yet still delivers devastating heat. Be warned: the Carolina Reaper\u00ae scores up to 2,000,000 on the Scoville scale. This pepper is not to be taken lightly.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

The Scoville scale is used to measure the amount of capsaicin to show the \u201chotness\u201d of the pepper. Capsaicin is a substance which stimulates receptors on the tongue that are sensitive to heat and pain. This gives a burning sensation. To prevent overheated situations, it is recommended to check the hotness on the Scoville scale!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

The Carolina Reaper\u00ae was created in South Carolina by Ed Currie, owner of the Pucketbutt Pepper Company. He originally started cultivating the pepper variety because of the amount of capsaicin used for cancer research. Because of his family history with many cancer cases, Currie wanted to do something to help.
