Joy and Michael Michaud have grown the hottest chili in the world in a polytunnel behind their West Bexington home.
The chili - the Dorset Naga - is so hot it went off the scales when first measured for its heat in an American laboratory.
The Dorset Naga is nearly 60 per cent hotter than the one currently recorded as the hottest in the Guinness Book of Records.
…The chili went off the scales and the lab rant the tests twice - because they couldn't believe the results.
Those results should a Scoville heat unit of 876,000. The record in currently held by a Red Savina Habanero with a rating between 350,000 and 570,000.
