On image No. 2:  I know you are very capsaicin tolerant, but for the love of Pete! If they are anything like the ones the boyfriend grew in our garden, be advised that even he only used them for too-much-testosterone-fueled dares to his buddies to "just eat one". Only a sadist could be amused at the aftermath of a grown man's reaction to one of these tiny raw peppers.

 

I know. I've had them before. And grown them, although I bought these ones. As with a number of the hotter chillies, they are usually used in dishes, but not actually eaten. The flavour gets to the dish, but any ridiculous over-hot effect is somewhat diminished.
