The thing I learned today is that I'm out of shape; I ate 1/4 of the pod with a full placental rib. It was bloody hot! It's been about 8 years since I'd eaten an orange Habanero due to their lack of availability here. I had eaten some fried rice an hour or two earlier but it still hit my stomach fairly hard, but no problem. The flavor was just as I remembered, which is why I like Habaneros so much.
The burn lasted about 6 minutes and set off some endorphens which was nice, very nice. I don't normally eat raw pods by themselves; I usually make a salsa, put them on pizza, or in a dish like chili con carne.
Anyway, it put a big smile on my face; it appears I've got a good crop.
Here's a pic;
