Now do a search for Ghost Peppers. They are arother order of magnitude hotter than Scotch Bonnets. Apparently, the only place in the world where they grow is a part of India. There are a few folks that grow them, and I think one that exports. They can't grow them fast enough to satisfy the world's demand.
