I shouldn’t really be reading this thread now and it would be better to save it until mid-October 2025. But like candy, I couldn’t resist while it’s still so fresh. Apologies in advance to those whose posts I heart 3 years after the fact.
I couldn’t tell a difference when doing a direct comparison.
had a kitkat last night, with a glass of wine, sitting on my deck.
feel guilty
I used to work with a guy who was a little bit crazy. One of the sales directors brought some peppers from his garden to the office - jalapeños, habaneros, and some variety of stupid hot something. And the guy said he’d eat one raw for $40. A few of us chipped in and he totally ate it, had a hard time swallowing it due to his gag reflex. His body was smarter than his mind.
Almost immediately he ran to the cafeteria - this was a guy who probably hadn’t run at any point since high school football. Got milk and bread to try to calm things down. An hour later I came back to see him and his collar was still drenched in sweat.
Good times.
Hot peppers don’t bother me too much until I get violent hiccups, which I think happens between Thai chilis and habaneros.
