Yorkshire folk like to spice up their lives by eating some of the fieriest curries.
A poll found 61% of diners in God’s Own Country reckon they could handle a dish with a “three chillis” rating, like a vindaloo.
But those in the East of England are most likely to play curries safe – with just 42% turning up the heat. The Scoville Scale, which measures the heat of chillis and other substances, was invented by US pharmacist Walter Scoville in 1912.
