I don't like to eat chilli although I've eaten mildly hot foods before.
But as you said, the Trinidad Scorpion Butch T is indeed hottest chilli in the world according to tests conducted on March 1, 2011, and it was grown in a chilli farm in Australia:
Quote:The hottest chilli is the Trinidad Scorpion "Butch T" which was grown by The Chilli Factory (Australia) and rated at 1,463,700 Scoville Heat Units (SHU) according to tests conducted by EML Consulting Services in Morisset, New South Wales, Australia, on 1 March 2011.
