Not being a fan of hot peppers, you might check out the Scoville rating, handle it very carefully, and reconsider the hazmat suit >:D >:D >:D!  Btw, I make "no alarm" chili -C-!

Over a million Scofield units in the Reaper compared to the 5000 or so in a Jalapeno, I wouldn't touch it, much less eat it.

My friend had some super duper hot sauce given to him as a gift, he said one drop in a big pot of chili made the chili too hot to eat. If I remember correctly he said dipping a toothpick in the hot sauce, shaking off the drop and stirring the bare toothpick in the pot of chili made it hot but eatable.

I have an in-law that chops up ghost peppers on his salads when he eats them, he ain't right in the head though. He has never met a restaurant hot wing challenge he couldn't defeat.

I'm making hot sauce out of them. If you slice, remove the seeds and white pith inside you get the flavor and no scorching heat.

If nothing else, it would cauterize your entire digestive tract, and your sinuses!>:D.  Not sure those bragging rights would be worth it!
