What is a scorpion chilli you ask?

Well, it’s a hot chilli pepper native to Trinidad and Tobago and is one of the most piquant peppers in the world. It's named after scorpions thanks to the chilli's pointed end, which is said to look like the critters’ stingers.

Ouch… but we do love a bit of spice!

The extra-hot new take on the Pigs In Blankets will be available in stores from 28 November and they cost £2.29 for a pack.
