Explanation[edit | edit source]

Since the publication of SRoMG #1940: Garfield Plus an Even Spicier Pepper, Ed Currie, who created the Carolina Reaper, created Pepper X, a pepper that he claims is twice as spicy. Though unconfirmed by the Guinness Book of World Records, this would mean that Pepper X is 3.18 million units on the Scoville scale.

I would've had Garfield eat a Dragon's Breath pepper, as it is hotter than the Carolina Reaper also, but it was unseated from its title only months after it claimed it. So in the interest of being current...

Original strip: 2000-09-17.
