To breed these things, I crossed a ghost pepper with a habanero,

We get our peppers tested regularly at Winthrop University by doctor Calloway in the chemistry lab.

All peppers are measured by Scoville heat units, which tell you how hot the pepper is.
所有的辣椒都用辣度单位史高维尔来进行测量,通过测量可以得知这个辣椒到底有多辣
Bell peppers have zero Scoville heat units.

Jalapeno is about 5,000, a Serrano 20,000, red habaneros 200,000, ghost peppers 600,000,
哈雷派尼奥辣椒大约5000史高维尔,赛拉诺辣椒是20000史高维尔,哈瓦那辣椒是200000史高维尔,魔鬼辣椒是600000史高维尔
then you get to the Carolina Reaper, which is 1,569,000 heat units, the hottest thing in the world.

When you eat the Carolina Reaper, the first sensation you get is sweet,
吃卡罗莱纳死神辣椒的时候,一开始你会觉得有点儿甜,
and then all of a sudden the heat starts going, it's like burning, burning, burning!

Then the physiological stuff starts.
之后开始出现生理反应。
Your eyes will bloodshot, they just start tearing up and watering.

Some people say it's like eating molten lava. Others will say it's like licking the sun.

To me, it's like eating a charcoal briquette,
对我来说,就像是吃下了一个煤球
and no matter what you do you, cannot get that burn out of the back of your mouth. I mean it's crazy.
不管做什么,你就是没有办法消除你嘴里的辣。我想说,那简直太疯狂了。
A lot of what I do is creative expression.

You look for traits in one pepper, and you look for traits in another,

and you try to combine them and keep both those traits.

There are other breeders who are trying to break our record,
也有其他种植辣椒的人想打破我们的纪录,
but, uh, we've been holding unreleased peppers in our back pocket

that are twice as hot or more than the Carolina Reaper

that we could submit to Guinness at any time.

My perception of what the limits are of how hot you can breed a pepper has changed as the science has progressed over the years.
