People of India like to eat spicy food very much. That is why chilli cultivation is done on a large scale here. Although some species of chilli are not pungent at all, some are so pungent. Today we are going to tell you in detail about this chilli.
The name of this chilli is 'Carolina Reaper', which is grown in America. The name of this chilli, which looks like some capsicum, has been recorded in the Guinness World Record as the 'world's most hot chilli'. According to scientists, until today, such hot chilli has never grown anywhere in the world. In 2012, Winthrop University in South Carolina investigated the sharpness of this chilli, which was found 15,69,300 SHUs, ie Scoville Heat Unit. The sharpness of anything is measured in the SHU itself. The higher the SHU, the more dangerous is the sharpness.
