This beautiful red ghost pepper was grown from a seed saved, previously.  A neighbor gave me two peppers last summer, and I saves some seeds. A ghost pepper is hotter than Hell.  No, seriously if you think there's not much  hotter than a jalapeño, think again.  According to pepperheadsforlife.com: Caution should be used when ingesting a ghost pepper. The name of ghost pepper was idealized because most felt ghostly after eating them. Others wished for death following consumption. During processing, individuals should wear gloves and avoid touching any areas of the body. This will avoid any unlikely transfers of the intense burning sensation. Being the hottest chili pepper, ghost peppers produce an immediate painful burn to the mouth. Once swallowed, the throat and stomach will begin to burn as well. Individuals will suffer the effects from thirty minutes to an hour after eating the pepper. They will also endure an extreme amount of perspiration that can linger for two hours or more. To combat the burning sensation, individuals should drink a liquid with a high fat content, such as milk. Eating ice cream can also be very effective. To alleviate the discomfort from the skin, individuals should wash in milk or baby shampoo. Water is not an effective means of ridding the burning sensation in the mouth or on the skin.
