Devil's Preserve

Originally hailing from New Castile, this jam was originally created for -Pope Johston.- (need better name?) and his grand tour of the world. New Castile according to the historic records at the time provided the Pope with a saint's welcome, making his visit into a holy festival to the likes rarley seen.

At this point the pope was presented with a jar of 'Johnston Gold', a fruit preserve made for the pope known for liking his Sunday Jam's. On sampling this gift and peace offering, the Pope spat it out on taste. The Jam had been laced with enough chilli that a Castilian would call 'spicy', and the Pope at the time would call 'too hot'. From that day forth it has been known as “The devils preserve”, A name given by said pope as he was later quoted to say “No man can eat that preserve, the people here must be devils”.

This particular incident has effected the two cultures in different way, but the preserve it self is still sold to this day and is a favourite along chili heads of Megelan. On New Castian though it is seen as a normal condiment with its original name.
