Pepper Penis (Capsicum anuum)
You don't have the berlue, this hot pepper evokes with precision the male member.;Of unknown origin, it would probably come from the regions of Louisiana, Texas in the United States or Mexico. His popularity would be due to Frank X. Tolbert (1912-1984), a journalist-historian from Texas working at the Dallas Morning News (between 1946 and 1984) and writing rather unusual local columns. In English he is called Peter Pepper (Capsicum annuum var. annuum, "Peter pepper"). You can find reds, oranges and yellows (this last color being rather rare). On the Scoville scale, it is evaluated on average at 16,500 on the Scoville scale, that is to say that it has a burning taste, but excellent dried or candied. Its shape is not discreet, it plants very well in a pot for Grandma's balcony, and will find its place in a guerrilla gardening, or on a sidewalk eatery (no pun intended) to make the neighbors laugh.
