THERE IS A NEW HOTTEST CHILLI IN THE WORLD THE "TRINIDAD SCORPION BUTCH T" variety Measuring a staggering 1,463,700 Scoville Units of heat!!

Naga Viper seems to be a hoax

Naga Viper seems to be a hoax. Cross-breeding 3 chilli varieties successfully will inadvertently take a minimum of 6 years.

The Naga Epic gaming mouse was not named after the Naga chili pepper, but rather the group of serpent deities in Hindu and Buddhist mythology.

Naga Morich is not a synonym for Bhut Jolokia

A line in the etymology section reads: "...The chili is also known as Naga morich in Bangladesh (morich meaning "pepper")...." with this reference. The reference doesn't say that. It says only "...Naga Morich, hailing from Bangladesh. This mental spice is a close cousin of Bhut Jolokia...". There are other refs to support it being its own variety. I will therefore turn the redirect into a stub. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 05:52, 24 February 2011 (UTC)

bhut

'bhut' भूत् is Hindi for 'ghost', deriving from the Sanskrit भूत bhūta 'being'. Perhaps this is where the confusion comes from?
