A new grocery store just opened up near me earlier this week. They specialize in obscure and imported foods and have one hell of a lot of hot sauces.
A few dried peppers as well.
They had a rather large selection of fresh peppers as well, but not as many as I had hoped. I picked up this variety pack for a $1.50 or so. I recognize most of the hab varieties, but not most of the other ones. Some look like the scorpion peppers, but I tried one of the yellow ones (bottom row center), and although it was hot on the pizza, it wasn't much hotter than a hab. Can anyone identify them all?
In closing, the mega Death sauce I bought is really really hot. I thought it was pretty good, but you have to use it sparingly. Wikapedia says 500,000 SHU and I don't doubt it....
