Thanks for posting the pepper list, very informative!
(I can make nuclear chili as either a food stuff, or a self protection item, (I’ll sell a bunch!) I’ll be able not rate my chili by the ‘megaton’ rating system.)

If I can find a way to persuade Nancy to move to Arizona (like finding a job!), I could finally enjoy serious food level incinerating chilies again. Actually, we are considering moving out of liberal lala land (Minnetaxasota) and get back with real people who actually love this country!
