    • Cheryl, my six-doors-down neighbor and friend Jason is growing a tremendous variety of superhots as I type, including the Carolina Reaper, currently the hottest documented pepper in the world. (First cultivated a mere 128 miles from where you’re likely reading this!) 🙂

      The Carolina Reaper ranges from 1.5 million Scoville heat units to 2.2 million SHU. The hottest thing I have yet consumed is CaJohn’s Mongoose sauce, which is a solid 800,000 to 1 million Scoville heat units.

      (The very hottest jalapeno tops out about 10,000.)

      I have promised to eat an entire Carolina Reaper pepper on camera and publish the results. (My son has promised the same, though I’m going to make him watch me before he makes his final decision.)

      Stay tuned!
