“Chili con Carnage”

In India, the military is developing a tear-gas type of non-lethal weapon out of the world’s hottest chili pepper, the so-called “ghost chili.” Those who ingest the chili pepper may retaliate with their own weapon, a deadly gas bomb.

Military police could trade in their nightstick for a pepper mill.

The ghost chili is known to be more than 100 times more potent than a jalapeño. This means a pepper grenade could take out a roomful of enemy combatants, or season a huge bucket of hot wings.

Weapons experts agree that this will definitely spice up traditional warfare.

There may some legal confusion, though, over the fact that if you attack someone with a pepper, the charge would be a-salt.
