Trivia

 * Its design may be based on the Coffee Bean of Plants vs. Zombies.
 * It seems to be based on real chili beans.
 * If not eaten, it will release its own gas every 10 seconds (the gas does not affect zombies as it is just part of an idle animation).
 * The Zombie Bull and the Treasure Yeti don't eject flatulence or faint upon eating the Chili Bean.
 * This may be because they are robots.
 * Also, if a Pharaoh Zombie still have his Sarcophagus, he will still eat the Chili Bean, but he's not effected by it.
 * Barrel Roller Zombies will crush it instead of eating it if it still has its barrel.
 * This does not happen with the Pianist Zombie; if the Pianist Zombie crushes the Chili Bean, it still faints and dies.
 * When a Seagull Zombie eats a Chili Bean, the paralyzing gas comes from its head.
 * There is a glitch in any Star Challenge where the player can't plant on Dave's mold colonies; if the player uses Plant Food on a Chili Bean and one lands on the mold colonies, the challenge can still be completed.
 * This can also happen with the Potato Mine.
 * This is most likely because the player themself did not place the Chili Bean or Potato Mine there directly, the game did.
 * Like Hypno-shroom and Garlic, Chili Bean's purpose is to be eaten.
 * Sometimes there is a bug that makes zombies faint before they finish eating the Chili Bean.
 * If this bug happens, the Chili Bean will be reusable one more time.
 * This bug may happen because the animation of the zombies is faster than before. (The bug was created in the 1.7 update)
 * Zombies hit by the gas cloud do not change color.
 * If a Plant Food zombie eats a Chili Bean, it does not change color. It is possible that this is a glitch.
 * However, if the above statement is false, then the color change is not significant enough to notice.
 * It is possible for more than one zombie to eat a Chili Bean at the same time. If this occurrs, all zombies eating it will release gas.
 * When more then one zombie eats it, the fume cloud will be thicker
 * However if more than 1 zombie is approaching then they all have to take the same number of bites or otherwise the zombie who has taken the highest number of bites releases gas and the rest of them escape.
 * Stunned zombies, however, will not stay stunned any longer than normal.
 * This is most likely a glitch, as it does not happen every time.
