    I think ghost peppers have fun uses and the Carolina reaper almonds from diamond are actually delicious and not that spicy (guessing they use very little). I agree that the mega potent stuff is better used for spicing up a 3 lb pot of chili.

      Wendy’s uses a lil tiny bit of ghost pepper in their ghost pepper ranch sauce and it’s actually a great flavor with some kick. Absolutely nowhere near as spicy as the actual pepper, of course. I’d put it maybe slightly above jalapeño?
