Chile Pepper Fun Fact - The Habanada Chile Pepper 

Habanada Pepper... Heat Level = Nada!  

Taking a hard left turn from the hottest pepper, the Habanada pepper was bred to have the flavor of a Habanero, with no heat. These peppers come in at 0 SHU's on the Scoville scale, but they have the familiar, floral flavor of the Habanero pepper.

The Habanada also has a beautiful orange color with an interesting wrinkled texture. They may look like a hot pepper, but they’re no hotter than your standard green bell pepper! Grow them yourself and fool your friends into thinking you can handle eating a raw Habanero! 

The Habanada pepper was developed by Michael Mazourek, a plant breeder at Cornell. He is also known for his work on creating the honeynut squash (a smaller, sweeter variety of butternut squash).
