If it wanted a habanero pepper it would say habanero pepper in the ingredients. The populations of Ireland and the UK don't seem to have any issues getting things like this mixed up.

I've seen people make similar statements when they learn we say "Torch" instead of flashlight and they wonder how we don't get mixed up with the ancient flaming Indiana Jones style torches.
