    Hi there lads. I just jogged into the fitness forum and these chillies were mentioned. So is there any place in Limerick that sell these beauties?

    Thanks

    The only place that I know of that stocks chillies is Tesco. They have several dried varieties - Habanero, Chipotle, Ancho and some others. Just don't look in the Tesco in Arthurs Quay. They have chillies for sale there with a best before date of Feb 2010. :eek:

    Also the staff are pig-ignorant, but thats another story.

    Why in the name of god would you want these?? You would need to be hospitalised after them!! I like things hot, but they must be ridiculous..

    And why would they be appearing in the fitness forum?

    Maybe the plan is, you go a mile from the nearest tap, eat one of the chillies, then see how fast you can make it to the tap.

    I'd imagine you'd be doing it near wold record pace.

    I'll have to get on to someone I know. As far as I know, there is an Indian foodstore in and around Limerik that stocks a fair few chillies. Will get back on to you in a bit ;)

    OP if you do source some, be careful handling them, and be sure to clean up your counter/chopping board after use so that not even the smallest trace is left on them.


    The Dorset Naga is only about an inch long, but if you tried to eat one whole, you are looking at a hospital visit. Even fresh ones being taken from the plant cannot be touched without having a glove on as they can burn skin.

    I reckon they kill your taste buds so healthy food won't taste so bad.

    Dunnes in the Jetland has a good selection of chillis.

    They sell fresh habeneros, bird's eye chillis, green finger chillis and jalpenos.

    Naga chillis I don't know where to get in Limerick, but this is the company I got the sauce that had 10% naga in it from:

    Thanks Lads

    I read that Tesco stocked them one time before and that they would not sell them to any minors.

    Will check out the Jetland for the other varieties. I forgot about the Indian shops. Used to get some spices in one of the Indian places in Thomas Street.

    I'm not sure... I just did a quick google and saw scotch bonnets so... They were a few different varieties in the Aldi pack though so definitely worth a look...

    Let us know :)

    If you find dried ones make sure to toast them first then re-hydrate in near boiling water for 10 minutes. Also it helps to wear plastic gloves when preparing them as you don't want to touch the chilli with bare skin. You might not feel anything at first if you do, but wait a few minutes and you will feel like your hands are on fire.

    Or your eyes if you happen to rub them before it kicks in. :D:(
