Thousands of people flock to Winchester for Cheese and Chilli Festival
Posted On June 5, 2023
It’s not for the faint-hearted but last weekend thousands flocked to Winchester for one of the hottest events in the foodie calendar – the Cheese and Chilli Festival.
One of the highlights of the day was the chilli-eating competition.
As the chillies get hotter, only a few make it to the end with a chilli more than two thousand times hotter than is normally tolerable.
Winchester’s Cheese and Chilli Festival isn’t just about the heat – it’s about flavour and variety too – with cookery displays, a festival vibe, and producers from across the region.
There was a whole range of things to try on offer – the chilli cheese proving a big hit.
Others enjoyed the sunshine and the festival vibe.
