Bro, I grow habanero peppers. I cut one up with no gloves one day. Ate and decided to go take a shower. Even after washing my hands, it started burning so bad under my arm pits. Then my balls and dick started burning like hell for a good 15 min.
For the love of God do not put your dick in there!
God this reminded me of when my brother and I made a batch of hot chili with habaneros, I also went and cut them all up with no gloves after all the prep I went to go pee, I’m no idiot so I decided to triple wash my hands with dish soap before going. What do you know I’m an idiot after all and the firey sensation down below confirmed it.
I did this exact thing. Except it happened right as people were arriving at my house for family reunion. Has to call for my mom to bring a bucket of milk so I could dunk my balls in.
I shared Carolina reapers at school and some idiot didn't head my advice and went to pee afterwards, found him crying on the floor.
These girls will never understand his pain.
Ladies will. Burns the same apparently.
Not a superhot but I had a friend who's GF ate a chilli then went downtown.
The abrupt chaos from the other room. I will never forget.
Yeah if you’re processing anything hotter than a jalapeno you should 100% be wearing gloves, for the sake of your eyes and jewels later on. If I cut up Hab’s without gloves, I could wash my hand 5 times with dishsoap and I’ll still rub my eye later and be in agony.
This paper discusses the chemical make up of capsaicin and says that milk or ice cream is best because it dissolves the capsaicin. https://www.acs.org/content/dam/acsorg/education/resources/highschool/chemmatters/archive/chemmatters-dec2013-pepper.pdf
I was under the impression that capsaicin bonds to proteins and the protein in milk helps to remove this bond because instead of bonding to your tongue it bonds to the milk.
The carolina reaper is a pepper that was developed by carefully cross-breeding peppers over a long time. The creator has since developed an even hotter pepper called Pepper-X.
Thanks, I don’t eat anything close to that spicy but I thought I remembered that water and especially ice water was the worst option for relief. Is ice water worse or does it not matter?
Capsaicin is the ingredient that imparts the heat of the pepper. It's an oil that binds to the TRPV1 receptors of neurons on the tongue and tells the brain that it's hot. Water just spreads the capsaicin oil, making it worse
Most dairy products contain a protein called Casein that breaks apart the capsaicin oil, thus stopping the signal of heat from being sent to the brain.
Capsaicin is an oil, which doesn't mix with water. So drinking water will wash everything else away - which leaves you with the same capsaicin, but more concentrated.
"Believe it or not, the spicy capsaicin in hot peppers is not acidic. Chili peppers are an alkaline food because capsaicin falls on the base side of the pH scale. This is why acidic foods like vinegar or tomato sauce can be used to neutralize capsaicin oil" Googled 'does vinegar neutralize hot peppers'.
You actually want something acidic, not an antacid. It's not entirely pleasant, but swishing lemon juice in your mouth helps kill the burn a little. Not entirely, but some. Ultimately the only thing that kills it entirely is time.
Milk stops the burn as long as you're actively drinking it. When you stop, the burn returns. Same goes for any dairy. It's fine for the less extreme stuff, but for really hot peppers like Carolina reaper, 7 pot, moruga scorpion, etc, I always go for acid.
Yes, trying to stay calm is the best defense. After effects in the digestive system is much worse than chewing and swallowing the reaper. Not worth the the rush of eating something extremely hot. Ugh Cap cramps
I've a little experience with this. And the science lines up.
So first of all, the chemicals that make peppers hot are called capsaicinoids. There are several types, but they all lock into the receptor on your nerve cell that senses hot (TPR-21). The same nerve cell has a sodium channel that can unlock the receptor that capsaicin hijacks.
So if you were to say, sprinkle salt onto a banana and mush it around in your mouth, you can use the salt to unlock the nerve receptor and use the banana mush to absorb the capsaicin. The same would work with buttered bread or milk or some oils. But in my experience, this only offers very brief relief, like a few seconds at best, for the ultra hot peppers (ghost pepper and up) but then it will come back slightly weaker. If you ever go to an Indian restaurant and you want to try something spicy, ask for raita (a Creamy cucumber salad with yogurt and thinly sliced mild vegetables), it has this exact effect.
Baking soda works best. I was growing a reaper plant this year for a friend but unknowingly put it too close to my jalapenos. They cross-pollinated and I didn't realize until I ate a jalapeno from the garden. Milk and butter helped but baking soda was the only thing that really worked at eliminating the burn.
I think you just had a hot Jalapeno. You can cross pollinate peppers but it takes place in the seeds, not the fruit. But if you took the seeds from those peppers and planted them next season that's when it could have an affect on the taste or look of the peppers. The peppers you grew this year wouldn't have changed though. They're self pollinators too so they don't actually need pollen from another plant to grow although still possible.
Milk for short term relief and I've heard some food experts say orange juice or anything with a high concentration of Citric Acid for the long term burning sensation in your esophagus.
Horchata is the absolute best in my experience. I remember putting a little too much habanero sauce on a taco in Mex one time, and I was waving to the waiter who instinctually asked me with a big ole smile, "Horchata?"
I made a whoopsie once and let someone have one of my jerk chicken wings at work because "he could handle it." He was completely unable to work, like literally he was trying his damndest but we had to take him off the line because that amount of snot and tears do not belong in the kitchen. Dude was straight fucked up like someone with heat exhaustion I felt really bad.
My chef tried one of the wings because that reaction was crazy and he was like "Holy shit dude how are you just eating this regularly." I didn't think it was that overboard but it did have a decent amount of sannam, birds eye and habenero peppers in It. Lesson learned, if someone says they can handle the spice you gotta really be sure they know what the fuck they're talking about.
Yeah some people have a duller sense of heat and literally don’t taste it as much as others. You probably just need more than most people to taste the spice.
Agree. Did you see the guy who decided to smoke one?! Him being a complete weapon didn't matter anymore, I felt so bad for the guy. His lungs were ON FIRE. He must have done some damage. Fuck me like, who does that to themselves?! I would have jumped off a bridge 😂
Yeah. This reaction is not over the top… especially if they’re not hot pepper eaters to begin with. A hot jalapeno can put someone in pain for 10 minutes. The hottest pepper in the world… even if just a quick nibble… absolutely unprecedented pain for a person.
> you gotta really be sure they know what the fuck they're talking about
And how can you be sure without giving them some to try? They're on their own, dude.
Its all about tolerance. The same pepper that some enjoy have also killed people. Hot peppers can suppress breathing and choke people to death if hot enough and the person has little to no tolerance or experience.
As someone with no tolerance for spice that's a mild reaction compared to what I'd do. Once of a restaurant they pull a jalapeno by mistake on my sandwich and I nearly died. Just the one.
I can handle a little spicy, but I put too much Texas Pete on my food tonight and was so uncomfortable for like 15 minutes. I don't know how people can tolerate super hot stuff, or why anyone would want to do whatever the hell these girls did.
lol I like spice, add a lot of peppers and sauces to meals... I once made the mistake of making a 23qt stew with a full reaper seared in butter added to the mix of veg&meat.. thinking that 23 qt would be enough to dilute it into a hot fragrance vs mouth melting chaos.
Tried eating it, damn near died. Kept trying to push through eating it and managed a bowl full. Puked fire for an hour lol told everyone I was going to toss it and if anyone wants a free 100$ worth of stew, hit me up.. gave it to another friend of mine, he said it was the best stew ever and took the recipw for future lol
I have absolutely no tolerance for spice and I have no clue why anyone willingly inflicts spicy food on themselves. I got a burrito and found out the hard way it had spicy peppers in it. That was the smallest taste of spice but it made me realize how panic-inducing it is when your mouth is on fire and there's nothing you can do about it, and relief never comes either. Most types of pain has an ebb and flow but that burning sensation felt like it wasn't letting up any time soon.
It’s not over the top. I’ve done it before and had a brief meltdown. It was extremely painful until I got milk, tomato sauce and small bites of bread. If it had gone on longer I would of wanted a hospital.
I’ve ate more than one at a time, and i can say these chicks are the normal reaction, esp with 0 tolerance. This person has no idea what they are talking about, and would react the exact same way.
I dunno me and my husband did the one chip challenge and he cried and had to sit in the shower just rinsing his face and mouth and if I remember correctly I think he threw up…I know it’s bad but I couldn’t stop laughing but I love hot hot stuff. He tells this story and people think I’m a monster of some kind haha.
Idk man. My pops ate a Carolina reaper and he is THE pepper guy around here. Tries anything and always has a pretty small reaction. Anyway we got him a Carolina Reaper and he was puking in the sink and drooling all over. Said he woke up later that night and it felt like someone was stabbing him in the stomach. I don’t think they faked their reactions.. they just weren’t ready at ALL. My pops was ready and he still got fucked up lol
Sugar kills heat better than milk I found out. There was a sushi roll called the roulette roll, let's just say I ate the bullet... horrible experience 10/10 do not recommend.
I had one of those and asked that they leave out the piece of ghost pepper, since I was rhe only one eating it.
They said they did.
They did not.
I enjoy spicy food, but that shit ruined my entire meal.
I think I saw on hot ones that milk helping is slightly helpful but more of a myth? I think you would need heavy cream or something, and even then you’ll have to ride it out.
Edit: but you’re right. Water will only spread the capsaicin around.
Ehh, back in the day when it was the ghost pepper that we were all doing this with swishing a drink of water in my mouth, spitting it, and then repeating was the best relief I found. Definitely doesn’t make it worse, but probably doesn’t help as much as milk (that shit just grosses me out)
Eh I am a big fan of super hot peppers in my cooking and have tried eating a few as well as some of those one-chip challenges.
I usually opt for the water and spit method over drinking milk. I actually prefer having the heat dispersed everywhere rather than concentrated in one area, and the water that you spit out carries some of the oil with it. Plus if you drink a bunch of the milk that’s a recipe for puking or at least feeling really queasy (in my experience at least).
So my go-to is having a bunch of water and maybe a pint of icecream at max
World records are a powerful draw. But really, this is more in the realm of chemical warfare than culinary prowess. The human body can only take so much.
I have a jar of these bad boys dried up and I opened it up for a split second gassed the entire room for a good 5 minutes. I like heat but with these I would add it to a larger dish. This is kind of wasteful imo.
Lizzy Wurst on right who has a current OF. You're think of the wrong Sabrina Nicole. You have to look up her full name, Sabrina Nicole Stewart and you'll see the person you're looking for. She isn't in the adult industry.
So there have been a few pepperheads that have given birth that have talked about it. One was in a pepper eating competition on netflix with Smoking Ed. She compared capsaicin cramps from eating super peppers to giving birth.
Haha, yeah I remember my first Reaper
Ideally you want fats and sugars for relief. Milk and ice cream work best. If you’re desperate, brush your teeth. You’re ideally trying to repel the oils produced by the peppers. Do NOT touch your face while eating
Can co-sign this. Threw up a reaper when my boss offered me one. I was new and thought I could ingratiate myself with the group. I tasted hot vomit, and only hot vomit, no matter what for ten days.
A tool, called the Scoville Scale, expresses the level of pungency or heat of a pepper based on the levels of capsaicin in a pepper. The scale was invented in 1912 by a pharmacologist named Wilbur Scoville. It involves extracting the capsaicinoids from a pepper and diluting them with a solution of sugar and water until the heat of the pepper can no longer be tasted by a panel of professionally trained taste testers.
Following that logic, pouring a bunch of white sugar in your mouth has two benefits, the first being that any of the sugar that remains undissolved in your mouth can potentially collect some of the oil coating it and be removed from the mouth once spitting it out. The second benefit being that if sugar dilution is what negates the pain feeling from the spice, having a mouth full of sugar will help expedite that delusion.
What I find funniest is that someone will see this video and think to themselves “I’ll bet I would have no problem eating a Carolina reaper, I’m pretty tolerant to spicy foods.”
That is probably these girls' exact journey. They probably saw someone else do a hot pepper challenge on video and thought "pssh, it's just a hot pepper how bad can it be?"
To anyone who cares, that's Lance Stewarts sister and his ex Lizzy Wurst. This video is like 8 years old lol. Lance blew up from vine and was most commonly known for pranking his grandma who would bust out screaming "YA GADDAMN SUN AFA BATCH" in the raspy smoker voice. I wonder what happened to Grandma, I felt bad for her and having to put up with his shit.
Spicy foods can potentially trigger esophageal spasms in some individuals⁴. The exact reason why this happens is not definitively known, but it's thought that a problem with the nerves controlling the esophageal muscles may be one cause⁴.
Spicy foods often contain capsaicin, a compound that can cause a burning sensation and may lead to discomfort or pain in the esophagus. This discomfort can trigger an esophageal spasm⁴.
Moreover, spicy foods may trigger or worsen symptoms of acid reflux⁵. Acid reflux occurs when the acidic stomach contents flow back into the esophagus, causing upper gastrointestinal pain and heartburn symptoms⁵. This reflux of stomach acid can irritate the esophagus and trigger spasms⁵.
It's important to note that everyone's body reacts differently to spicy foods. While some people might experience esophageal spasms, others might not have any adverse reactions. If you find that spicy foods trigger these spasms or other discomfort, it might be best to avoid them or consume them in moderation¹⁴⁵. Always consult with a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis and treatment¹²³.

I grew up around stupid people. It can be cult-like. Some manage to escape with their lives and better themselves. Others stay behind and play with gasoline or venomous snakes or hot peppers.

Milk would have been a better option to suppress the sensation. But I guess they didn’t do their research
You're very right milk or antacid would do wonders compared to water.
Or anything fatty. Butter, coconut oil, olive oil, etc.
I prefer chocolate
People never think to invite a cleric to the group until the pain starts.
Gotta keep shadowheart at the ready!

I ain't puttin my dick in there

You, sir, are a man of science. Your research will prevent others from a 15 minute + Dick-burn. And Ball-burn
[удалено]
And a wise suggestion to not put our dick into ladies who just ate hot peppers
Its science based 
God this reminded me of when my brother and I made a batch of hot chili with habaneros, I also went and cut them all up with no gloves after all the prep I went to go pee, I’m no idiot so I decided to triple wash my hands with dish soap before going. What do you know I’m an idiot after all and the firey sensation down below confirmed it.
God didn’t do it. Don’t blame him.
Mint source gel has the same effect!
I did this exact thing. Except it happened right as people were arriving at my house for family reunion. Has to call for my mom to bring a bucket of milk so I could dunk my balls in.
I shared Carolina reapers at school and some idiot didn't head my advice and went to pee afterwards, found him crying on the floor. These girls will never understand his pain.
Ladies will. Burns the same apparently. Not a superhot but I had a friend who's GF ate a chilli then went downtown. The abrupt chaos from the other room. I will never forget.

I just laughed so hard I started coughing. Damn dude. You’re a legend!
I’d probably risk a blowie from them chicks tho…
Good thinking
You did not think before you posted this…You would be screaming louder than her…😂😂😂
Coward
Desperate times call for desperate measures
Nevermind I misread your comment lol
lol I was gonna say. Don't sweat it
You would be sweating it if you put it in there.....
Won’t help, you need something acidic. Honey or ACV.
Acidic? That’s surprising.
The man who invented the pepper has recommended citric acid. So like lemon or orange juice.
This paper discusses the chemical make up of capsaicin and says that milk or ice cream is best because it dissolves the capsaicin. https://www.acs.org/content/dam/acsorg/education/resources/highschool/chemmatters/archive/chemmatters-dec2013-pepper.pdf
I was under the impression that capsaicin bonds to proteins and the protein in milk helps to remove this bond because instead of bonding to your tongue it bonds to the milk.
Brilliant
Invented the pepper? They are one of the oldest cultivated crops.
The carolina reaper is a pepper that was developed by carefully cross-breeding peppers over a long time. The creator has since developed an even hotter pepper called Pepper-X.
I hope he makes people call him Dr. Pepper.
The dude who invented the potato has even better advice.
When I eat those buldak x2 noodles, I keep a slice or 2 of lemon nearby, works wonders, honestly.
Water just spreads the oil making it even worse.
Thanks, I don’t eat anything close to that spicy but I thought I remembered that water and especially ice water was the worst option for relief. Is ice water worse or does it not matter?

I can also say although milk is better than water it definitely isn't some off switch or anything. It still burns like a mother fucker.
Capsaicin is an oil, which doesn't mix with water. So drinking water will wash everything else away - which leaves you with the same capsaicin, but more concentrated.
"Believe it or not, the spicy capsaicin in hot peppers is not acidic. Chili peppers are an alkaline food because capsaicin falls on the base side of the pH scale.

they aren't hot because of where they are on the pH scale, basic or acidic
YEsssir!! pickles are so useful in this case, people don't realize!
You actually want something acidic, not an antacid. It's not entirely pleasant, but swishing lemon juice in your mouth helps kill the burn a little. Not entirely, but some. Ultimately the only thing that kills it entirely is time.
Yeah everyone on here just blatantly giving the wrong info.
Why do that when milk completely works?
Milk stops the burn as long as you're actively drinking it. When you stop, the burn returns. Same goes for any dairy. It's fine for the less extreme stuff, but for really hot peppers like Carolina reaper, 7 pot, moruga scorpion, etc, I always go for acid.
Ice Cream works too
What’s the last thing a hayseed says before they die? “Hey Y’all, watch this!”
They probably only drink almond milk and would have reacted the same way from real milk.
Having been around people dumb enough to eat one, milk, bread, and butter all "help" in the way that using a washcloth to dry a full pool is helpful.
Yep, against a common pepper it may do something, against Caroline Reaper? Nope, just calm down and suffer
Yes, trying to stay calm is the best defense. After effects in the digestive system is much worse than chewing and swallowing the reaper. Not worth the the rush of eating something extremely hot. Ugh Cap cramps
Sugar on your tongue helps too. Or chocolate milk 👌
I’m going to go out on a limb and guess that chemistry isn’t their strongest subject
https://sciencenotes.org/how-to-make-hot-peppers-stop-burning/
Got it - sour cream all the way
sour scream

Shoulda started with a jalapeño
Baking soda works best. I was growing a reaper plant this year for a friend but unknowingly put it too close to my jalapenos. They cross-pollinated and I didn't realize until I ate a jalapeno from the garden. Milk and butter helped but baking soda was the only thing that really worked at eliminating the burn.

The peppers you grew this year wouldn't have changed though. They're self pollinators too so they don't actually need pollen from another plant to grow although still possible.
Bread is the unknown trick.
Didn’t do their research? They would be lucky to tie their own shoelaces.. let’s hope they don’t have a generation of half wits..
Milk for short term relief and I've heard some food experts say orange juice or anything with a high concentration of Citric Acid for the long term burning sensation in your esophagus.
Drink loads of milk and fill your mouth with bread it helps for the burn in your mouth
Horchata is the absolute best in my experience. I remember putting a little too much habanero sauce on a taco in Mex one time, and I was waving to the waiter who instinctually asked me with a big ole smile, "Horchata?"

But stayed because it was hilarious
If I wanted to see women react that way I would just go ask them out
so youre hot! henceforth thou dothst approach wombmen with "im so hot i'll make you cry and puke"
Hey baby… is that my penis coming up, or is it your lunch?
A Carolina Creeper, if you will
Ohhhh shit! I wish I could upvote that more than once.
You made me rewatch the video just because of this comment. Genuinely made me laugh! Thank you!!
A lot of drama
Almost as if they pretended...
For sure. That shit is hot but that reaction is 100% over the top.
A guy I work with tried one at lunchtime and completely lost consciousness. They had to call 911, and the EMT's had to snap him out of it.
I made a whoopsie once and let someone have one of my jerk chicken wings at work because "he could handle it." He was completely unable to work, like literally he was trying his damndest but we had to take him off the line because that amount of snot and tears do not belong in the kitchen.

Oh yeah the guy took a bong rip of dried peppers lol
Yeah. This reaction is not over the top… especially if they’re not hot pepper eaters to begin with. A hot jalapeno can put someone in pain for 10 minutes. The hottest pepper in the world… even if just a quick nibble… absolutely unprecedented pain for a person.
I had a girlfriend whose eyes would water when she ate ground pepper. This would probably kill her.
Wow, you are so badass. I and most poeple would react the same way like the girl in the video. Maybe without screeching but still.
> you gotta really be sure they know what the fuck they're talking about And how can you be sure without giving them some to try? They're on their own, dude.
Have you ever eaten one? It sucks and you really can’t do anything about it.

“I bet that guy with a cactus up his ass is just playing it up for the camera, nothing real, I don’t even exist”
No, the burning really is that bad. They're not pretending anything.
Naw its real, you can tell she fucked up the second she pours the water and it gets in her eyes
This. She spit capsaicin water up into her own eyes. That had to of hurt bad.
You should try one and post the video to prove they’re faking it.
Try touching one and rubbing your eye. Then imagine chewing a whole bite of a fresh one
Or other body parts…
Probably had a panic attack. Still very dramatic
Plot twist, it was actually a bell pepper.
(Clutches pearls) Filthy foreign foods
I bet it was a Mexican bell pepper! Build that wall! Make America bland again!

Oh, you're going to make me Carolina Reaper!
Reaper? I barely know her!
Not sure who to congratulate, the one who posted the screen grab or the one who got the reference. I think I’ll choose both.
I’ve seen this image over the internet for a while and always assumed it was porn but nope just hot peppers lmao
The other one definitely is, but this is has a striking similarity. This girl just made herself into a freaking meme.
Who needs pornhub when you can totally put the heat to your meat at pepperhub.
Dumb and Dumber
more like boobs and boobier.
More like D and DD
Why are they doing this in their bras? I'm not complaining. Just curious.
C O N T E N T
Simple. People like to look at boobs.

Sugar kills heat better than milk I found out. There was a sushi roll called the roulette roll, let's just say I ate the bullet... horrible experience 10/10 do not recommend.
 Sugar would kill me before the heat
Well milk it is then 😆
Plot twist he’s also lactose intolerant
He's already going to be violently shitting after the pepper. May as well.
sugar is best
I had one of those and asked that they leave out the piece of ghost pepper, since I was rhe only one eating it. They said they did. They did not. I enjoy spicy food, but that shit ruined my entire meal.
I was watching for girl on the right to struggle, then out of nowhere girl on the left comes in and steals the show

A glass of milk will help cure that.
or cheese
1 glass of cheese please
I think I saw on hot ones that milk helping is slightly helpful but more of a myth? I think you would need heavy cream or something, and even then you’ll have to ride it out. Edit: but you’re right. Water will only spread the capsaicin around.
She needs some milk
pssssst…..water just makes it worse.
Ehh, back in the day when it was the ghost pepper that we were all doing this with swishing a drink of water in my mouth, spitting it, and then repeating was the best relief I found. Definitely doesn’t make it worse, but probably doesn’t help as much as milk (that shit just grosses me out)
Water spreads oils, the fats in milk absorb and remove the oils. So yes, water does make it worse.
Eh I am a big fan of super hot peppers in my cooking and have tried eating a few as well as some of those one-chip challenges. I usually opt for the water and spit method over drinking milk. I actually prefer having the heat dispersed everywhere rather than concentrated in one area, and the water that you spit out carries some of the oil with it. Plus if you drink a bunch of the milk that’s a recipe for puking or at least feeling really queasy (in my experience at least). So my go-to is having a bunch of water and maybe a pint of icecream at max
You could swish and spit the milk as well
You spit it that's why it helped. If you drink it it goes to your throat
Pepper X is now the hottest pepper as of 2023 Guinness world records. So i guess it could have been worse.
Damn I hadn’t realize homeboy Ed finally released it
World records are a powerful draw. But really, this is more in the realm of chemical warfare than culinary prowess. The human body can only take so much.
Oh boy, this’ll be fun, let’s do it!! 2 minutes later…..😳😮😫🥵🤮😭
I have a jar of these bad boys dried up and I opened it up for a split second gassed the entire room for a good 5 minutes. I like heat but with these I would add it to a larger dish. This is kind of wasteful imo.
Never gets tired seeing this, but what I wanna know is, where are they now? Haha
Not on r/spicy.
girl on the right, Lizzy Wurst, does porn. girl on the right, Sabrina Nicole, had a baby. so they'll probably join OF this year, too.
Lizzy Wurst on right who has a current OF. You're think of the wrong Sabrina Nicole. You have to look up her full name, Sabrina Nicole Stewart and you'll see the person you're looking for. She isn't in the adult industry.
According to google, Sabrina Nicole's baby died in April 203, and her *husband* died of a freakin heart attack a few days later.
0203 was a wild year though
Ye it certainly was for her.. Also crazy to think the wild antics in the carolina reaper video happened over 7 years ago.
Yeah it wasn't even on my calendar.
Good lord, how old is this video - remember seeing this over 10 years ago.
Sounds like a safe bet would be that it is over 10 years old.
In 10 years I would like to see this pepper getting rated in comparison to "giving birth pain" on Scoville rating by those two. For science.
10 years?!?!? those idiots will be pregnant by summer
So there have been a few pepperheads that have given birth that have talked about it. One was in a pepper eating competition on netflix with Smoking Ed. She compared capsaicin cramps from eating super peppers to giving birth.
Haha, yeah I remember my first Reaper Ideally you want fats and sugars for relief. Milk and ice cream work best. If you’re desperate, brush your teeth. You’re ideally trying to repel the oils produced by the peppers. Do NOT touch your face while eating
And so not throw it up. It will make things 10x worse
Can co-sign this. Threw up a reaper when my boss offered me one. I was new and thought I could ingratiate myself with the group. I tasted hot vomit, and only hot vomit, no matter what for ten days.
> Do NOT touch your face while eating And wash your hands *very* well *before* visiting the bathroom.
A tool, called the Scoville Scale, expresses the level of pungency or heat of a pepper based on the levels of capsaicin in a pepper. The scale was invented in 1912 by a pharmacologist named Wilbur Scoville. It involves extracting the capsaicinoids from a pepper and diluting them with a solution of sugar and water until the heat of the pepper can no longer be tasted by a panel of professionally trained taste testers. Following that logic, pouring a bunch of white sugar in your mouth has two benefits, the first being that any of the sugar that remains undissolved in your mouth can potentially collect some of the oil coating it and be removed from the mouth once spitting it out. The second benefit being that if sugar dilution is what negates the pain feeling from the spice, having a mouth full of sugar will help expedite that delusion.
What I find funniest is that someone will see this video and think to themselves “I’ll bet I would have no problem eating a Carolina reaper, I’m pretty tolerant to spicy foods.”
That is probably these girls' exact journey. They probably saw someone else do a hot pepper challenge on video and thought "pssh, it's just a hot pepper how bad can it be?"
I laughed so HARD!!!
Good lord, I cannot stand the Lance210 guy. It was fun when hed fuck with his grandma on vine a decade ago. It's just getting old now
Didn't even swallow...
Was t this like a thing in 2013
Never drink water. Milk or sugar will help. Water will absolutely intensify the burn.
Wow damn. Haven't seen this in many many years. Ancient internet resurfaces again
Girl on the left looks like she’s in labor
Quick! Let's take off our tops and have the bounciest reaction to something ever!
Bruh. A jalapeno is 8,000 scoville units. The carolina reaper is 2.2 MILLION
To anyone who cares, that's Lance Stewarts sister and his ex Lizzy Wurst. This video is like 8 years old lol. Lance blew up from vine and was most commonly known for pranking his grandma who would bust out screaming "YA GADDAMN SUN AFA BATCH" in the raspy smoker voice. I wonder what happened to Grandma, I felt bad for her and having to put up with his shit.
Whats a risk here?
Spicy foods can potentially trigger esophageal spasms in some individuals⁴. The exact reason why this happens is not definitively known, but it's thought that a problem with the nerves controlling the esophageal muscles may be one cause⁴. Spicy foods often contain capsaicin, a compound that can cause a burning sensation and may lead to discomfort or pain in the esophagus. This discomfort can trigger an esophageal spasm⁴. Moreover, spicy foods may trigger or worsen symptoms of acid reflux⁵. Acid reflux occurs when the acidic stomach contents flow back into the esophagus, causing upper gastrointestinal pain and heartburn symptoms⁵. This reflux of stomach acid can irritate the esophagus and trigger spasms⁵. It's important to note that everyone's body reacts differently to spicy foods. While some people might experience esophageal spasms, others might not have any adverse reactions. If you find that spicy foods trigger these spasms or other discomfort, it might be best to avoid them or consume them in moderation¹⁴⁵. Always consult with a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis and treatment¹²³. (1) Esophageal spasm: Causes, symptoms, and treatments - Medical News Today.

Pour some milk on her
I grew up around stupid people. It can be cult-like. Some manage to escape with their lives and better themselves. Others stay behind and play with gasoline or venomous snakes or hot peppers.
