What's the difference

So tell me in this pic which pod is the Carolina Reaper and which one is the Primo

I grew them both this year and last year and I honestly can't tell the difference they both look like ... well Primo's ..

My Q is have you ate them to tell if one is hotter then the other? I don't think there will be one hotter then the other, just like they look alike.

IMHO flavor is the only difference and IMO Primos are better

The Primo is the one with the tail and the Reaper is the one with the hook.

They are both hooks ..
I think they are the same pepper

IMHO the Reaper is just a Primo with lipstick. I'm sure the Primo has much more to do with its genetics than the mysterious Pakastani Habanero.

Yeah sorry, I was just being a smart ass. I haven't grown either one yet but am starting some reapers for next years grow.
