Chili Pepper News

So, pepper spray has been a form of security for years. The police use it and so do college girls. It’s just that sort of a thing. And why not? There are only a few non-lethal means of self-protection that return serious results. Pepper spray is also what you’re supposed to carry when hiking to deter bears from attacking – and in parts of the world, chili pepper bombs are under development.

Last year was the first, but the California Hot Sauce Festival was so good that it was never going to be the last. (As if we needed more proof that chili head numbers are growing exponentially!)

As you well know, there are heaps of foodie holidays on the calendar. In fact, there’s damn near one for every day of the year. And, there are plenty of days with a couple of different dishes to enjoy. You can pick just about anything you enjoy and build a meal plan around it. Well, you could; except, there are plenty of dessert days on the menu every month.

When you bite into a chili pepper, you begin to sweat. Okay, it might not happen with a Jalapeño any longer, because it’s one of the mildest peppers you can buy these days. But, anything from Habanero upwards is likely to make a difference in body temperature.
