We got some yellow pepper plants from the neighbour. But in this bunch which was supposed to be mild, there was a plant of something like Ghost Peppers. We first realized it at the cottage, when the daughter-in-law started screaming. Then, I did a man thing, and tasted a bit. OMG!
We couldn't tell any difference by look alone, and none of us wanted to munch on peppers to locate the little hellion. Today, we finally cornered Mr. Spicy (son in law) to do the check. As he was munching, he kept saying 'Not spicy', until he finally tried one that was a bit more yellow. "Oh, that's spicy." he says in a calm tone, and continues to munch them. My daughter put her tongue on one, and screamed. A glass of water didn't do anything. It was hilarious.
We let them take all the peppers. Now we know, and the soninlaw started breaking out in a big sweat, and looked funny. He finally admitted they were a bit over the top.
