Am I missing something? The Chile Pepper Institute of the New Mexico State University did a test to determine what chili peppers of the time were the hottest. In a controlled side by side experiment, they determined that the Moruga Scorpion was the hottest at the time. Seems legit.
In this video, Mr. Barrus says CPI made outrageous claims about needing two pair of gloves to handle them. I dont think that is outrageous. If I process with a single pair of gloves, wash my hands and then rub my eyes it frigging hurts. I dont know what soaks threw, but something sure does.
Then he caps it off by saying Moruga Scorpion was never certified by Guinness? Seriously? Uh, Guinness also certifies who can hold the most living cock roaches in their mouths at once. I dont think they actually test a thing. I think they review records. This vs. a study by a major university?
Now what he said about sensationalism and the Dragon's Breath pepper, ye that seems about spot on. Lots of sensationalism going on there. Gotta love the whole it will kill you stuff. But to rip on a major university and praise Guinness. Seriously, what the heck is he thinking?
Mr. Barrus, I have watched you, laughed with you, and not long ago prayed for you. So glad you are looking and sounding better. I agree with your frustration over the whole hottest pepper in the world thing. But trashing on a university and praising Guinness. Come on guy.
