This news anchor is obviously not educated in how hot chili peppers can be even when they're in lollipop form. Only an expert chili eater would even think about sticking a lollipop boasting a million Scoville heat units in their mouth.

As the guy mentioned in the video, this lollipop is 200 times hotter than a jalapeno pepper which averages 3,500-8,000 Scoville heat units (SHU).

By comparison, Cayenne pepper ranges from 30,000-50,000 SHU and a Habanero chili touts 100,000-350,000 SHU which makes the lollipop 10 times hotter than even a Habanero.

I'm sure after the burn subsides, this news anchor will be extra careful to give a lollipop a taste test before sticking the entire thing in her mouth again. If she has any working taste buds left, that is.
