World's hottest pepper bred by Mr Currie

Classic nominative determinism. It should have been called the "Johnny Cash", because of the burning ring if fire it causes next day. It's just been recognised as the world's hottest by Guinness World Records, easily beating the Carolina Reaper, also bred by Mr Currie.

I once tried using "chicken" as a password, but was told it must contain a capital so I tried "chickenkiev"
On another occasion, I tried "beefstew", but was told it wasn't stroganoff.

"Those cramps become unbearable - okay, for a man at least. A doctor explained it to me that it was akin to a menstrual cramp."
