Trinidad Moruga Scorpion

World's hottest pepper.

For all of those who are chili and salsa fans there is a new king of the hot peppers.  The Trinidad Moruga Scorpion beat out the Trinidad Scorpion, the 7-pot, the Chocolate 7-pot and the Bhut Jolokia, which was a previous record-holder.  The research was done by the University of New Mexico.  I don’t recommend eating any of these peppers.  Just check out You Tube and search Ghost Pepper (the previous record holder Bhut Jolokia) or Trinidad Moruga Scorpion.  Anyway all these little guys are nasty and will give some pop to your batch of salsa.
