Chili Flower in my garden (Click to enlarge)

Do you believe that this white flower which looks so sweet, will go on to become the spicy Chili – the small red hot-tasting pod used for flavoring sauces, pickles, etc.

Some people love them and some don’t. BUT if you are in India you just can’t avoid them !!!

Some Hot Chili Quotes:

What if you think Chilly is not a flavoring dish ? 

“Whenever I meet someone who does not consider chili a favorite dish, then I’ve usually found someone who has never tasted good chili.” – Jan Butel, author of “Chili Madness,” published by Workman Publishing, 1980.

On Passion inspired by Chili –

“The aroma of good chili should generate rapture akin to a lover’s kiss.” – Motto of the Chilli Appreciation Society International

Chili in the Law –

“Next to music there is nothing that lifts the spirits and strengthens the soul more than a good bowl of chili. Congress should pass a law making it mandatory for all restaurants serving chili to follow a Texas recipe.” – Harry James (1916-1983) band leader and trumpeter

What is the last wish of a chili lover ?

“Wish I had time for just one more bowl of chili.” – Alleged dying words of Kit Carson (1809-1868) Frontiersman and Mountain Man

What about you:  Do you Cherish the hot as hell’s brimstone OR the so called Soup of the Devil – THE CHILI ???
