A photo that was posted on my Twitter account Garry Mcgivern’s Travelsonabike2 on the 12th of August 2013. Garry and Julie are at the Chilli Fiesta at West Dean near Chichester.
The Chilli Fiesta is held in the grounds of West Dean College, which is just outside of Chichester. Eight miles away from us. It’s a three-day event celebrating everything to do with chillies. They had live cooking displays. Stalls that sold all types of chilli-based products. From oils, pastes, chocolate, popcorn and even chilli-flavoured candy floss! The hottest chilli paste I tried was about 800,000 Scoville’s. The secret to trying these hot sauces is to only take a little bit. Unfortunately, I took a bigger scoop than I’d intended to! As I was being watched by some people who all wanted to see my reaction, I couldn’t put it down and had to eat it. Luckily, I had my sunglasses on so nobody could see my eyes watering! It was hot but very tasty. My mouth was still burning twenty minutes later!
