Some Like it Hot. But THIS HOT?

As you might know, Scoville Heat Units (SHU) are used to measure a food's "hotness". Up until now, the hottest food on record has been the Red Savina chile pepper with about a half million SHU rating. We thought we had a new champ with the Bhut Jolokia at 1,002,304 SHU. But right on the heels of the Bhut Jolokia victory comes word of a new winner. The Dorset Naga Chilli at a whopping 1.6 million SHU!

World record set for hottest chili pepper - boingboing
