Chili peppers have an 8000-year-old history, which started in today’s Mexico, but the first European who encountered this pepper is believed to be Christopher Columbus. Upon arriving on the new land, he looked for black pepper and cinnamon, but the natives introduced him to chili instead of that. The cultivation and distribution of chili peppers started soon after Columbus’ first encounter with them. Today there are about 4000 types of chili peppers, which can be summed into 28 subspecies, and the Scoville scale can measure the spiciness of these peppers.
