Me and my friend were arguing about what pepper the hot pepper is.
I think it's a ghost pepper...

Looks like a red finger pepper to me tbh

Most likely. It’s also possible it’s Aji Sivri, though considering Cayenne is more well known, it’s probably that.

I figured cayenne, or the sort of standard Thai ones their restaurants throw into stir fries (these: https://canadapickles.ca/shop/charc...0Rvo4MrrAMDAeK5O1gfpgS8pkbgCSaq5f8rEGMhkBjC5x).
Things like ghost pepper and such weren't really on the general radar in the same way 10 years ago. I mean, I knew they existed, but not the same way I knew about chili peppers in my thai red curry (ie, biting into them on occasion) or cayenne (dried in a jar in my spice drawer)

Agreed it must be the ghost pepper since Shane says ""Ooohh... my tongue is swollen from eating too many pepper poppers."

Ghost peppers are shaped quite differently from the sprite though, so it's probably something different. I'm sure there must be something on the spicier side that's also long and skinny like that...

To be fair, only the sprite looks like that pepper. It never really tells us or lets us pick which pepper we are planting, and also it's kinda unusual to make pepper poppers out of cayennes
