Indian woman seeks Guinness hot chili pepper eating record
(From slashfood) Yahoo News has an AFP article about an Indian woman’s quest for a Guinness world record:
Anandita Dutta Tamuly, a 26-year-old mother, is headed from Assam to London at the invitation of the record-noting institution to see how many Bhut Jolokia peppers, native to the state, she can eat at one sitting.
Tamuly, who hails from a remote village, believes she will have little trouble in beating the previous record, set by South African Anita Crafford, who ate eight jalapenos in a minute in 2002.
The Bhut Jolokia peppers are 100 times hotter than a jalapeno. The government of Assam is helping sponsor Ms. Tamuly’s trip. (Critics of competitive eating would probably say that subsidy could be better spent on the poor of India 😉 )
