I picked the first pepper of the season today from a plant I have in a
surrogate garden. I believe it to be a Hungarian Wax (Guero?). It looked
very
harmless and I took a very big bite and about died!

It was as hot as any Habanero I have ever eaten and it still burned,
half an hour later.
Isn't a Hungarian Wax supposed to be the heat factor of a Jalapeno?
Maybe
I've just gotten too used to the wimpy Jalapenos on the market.

Michelle in KC..and I'm testing little bitty bites from now on!
