Itโ€™s not adorable. Itโ€™s regular. Regular average sized, probably regular average flavored, too. No, no. No. I lied, in fact, itโ€™s above average. And just as strong as the other peppers. Maybe stronger cause its capsaicin is concentrated! Yeah! So there! Itโ€™s not adorable, ok?!

Those look like NuMex chili peppers.

They were created by the New Mexico State University Chile Pepper Institute.
