Capsicum annuum

Officially the Guinness World Record Holder for the World Largest Chilli. This one caught me by surprise, looking at its size I was sure it would be a mild, sweet pepper. You know, more like a paprika with a bit of zing. So, here is my word of warning; If you are not a chilli eater, picking up one of these and taking a mouthful is a pretty daft idea. It's a chilli, even at this size.
