Chilli Justice.

[Potstubsdustbins]

So here we have a shop lifter, his last port of call is a grocer's where amongst other things he nicks some bright red fruit.

Out side he pops a fruit into his mouth and chews, a few minutes later he is on the floor in agony and vomiting.


Ain't Scotch Bonnets wonderful, better than any judge.

Where?????

[Potstubsdustbins]

St Paul's Bristol, when nicked he had a £225 clarinet, a milk-shake, fruit juice and 4 uneaten peppers.

Pity that they could have made eat the other four.

He'll probably find a way of suing the greengrocer and all Scotch Bonnets, henceforth will have to carry warning labels

Did something similar just the other night, minus the shoplifting. Nibbled the outside of a chilli carefully to test for any heat, first time growing them. At best it was like a sweet pepper. So I threw the lot in and gave it a good chew. Was only later when I looked it up did I confirm that it's the pith that has all the heat

I wonder if that's where the saying "Taking the pith" comes from?
