Woman Breaks Record

A 28-year-old woman has eaten 51 ghost chillies, the world’s hottest, in two minutes to gain a place in Guinness World Records Book. Anandita Dutta Tamuly (seen smearing chilli seeds on her eyes) was cheered on by Gordon Ramsey, who was visiting the north-eastern state of Assam to film a new TV series. Ghost chilli has more than 1,000,000 Scoville units, the scientific measurement of spiciness – jalapeno peppers hold up to 8,000. Ramsey tried a bite but said it was ‘too much’. Tamuly said: “I felt so [id:77675] I could eat only 51. In 2006, I had eaten 60 in two minutes for a local record event.”
