"Hot Scale"

Hottest Chile in the World

Hottest Thing, period, in the World

And you don't like hot things.

GARLIC ! It's a meal in itself !

I never understood this fascination with painfully spicy food. I mean flavour is one thing. But food shouldn't hurt.

My motto is if you're not crying (out of joy or pain) then the food it not good enough.

What food REALLY shouldn't do is make pooping burn. (like some spicy foods do)

Like on Man vs. Food?

 

[Karalysia]

When phone companies offer a free phone but say:

2 year contract & new activation required.

What they really mean is basically if you're an existing customer that already has a contract you can't get the free phone, right?

I find it's best to eat really spicy food really quickly.

In my experience (at least with Mexican-spicy) it's the opposite - it will either burn in your mouth, or in your stomach, or on the way out, and it is much easier to deal with in your mouth. So take some time, chew it, work the spiciness out.

Pfft Encona chilli sauce made with Scotch bonnets my chilli sauce of choice. Also tabasco.

Have you tried Dave's Insanity Sauce?

 

[ParadigmShifter]

Nope. Haven't seen it.

A friend punched me in the face twice the other night.

Its really been a drag on our friendship since. He's being really awkward around me just because he punched me in the face twice. I've told him I'm ok about it and that I'm sure he had his reasons, but he really seems to be beating himself up about punching me in the face twice.

How should I restore our friendship, apart from by punching him in the face twice?

 

[ParadigmShifter]

Tell him to punch himself in the face twice for you.

Or buy you a few pints.

Punch him in the face twice.

Well yes these are the the obvious solutions. But the incident happened two weeks ago, and as I am mildly socially ********, it took me a while to figure out why he was acting odd.

It would be a bit weird bringing it up again, like I actually have a grudge about it.

I mean at the time it was hilarious. My main thought was to laugh at how preposterous it was that he was punching me in the face twice.

I think the best solution would be to punch a friend of both of ours in the face twice and then let that guy punch me in the face twice as compensation. That way my original friend doesn't feel guilty about punching me in the face twice as everyone is now punching each other in the face twice.

But then of course, the original puncher still hasn't been punched in the face twice. It a perpetual cycle of double face punching.

 

[ParadigmShifter]

Ask him to punch Quackers in the face twice - that would cheer us all up!

 

[really]

Turn the other cheek.

Then get drunk together down in the Róisín.

Thats what led to all this trouble in the first place!

Quackers, I need you to travel to a pub in Galway and myself and an even more complete stranger than myself will each punch you in the face.

Do it in the name of peace!

 

[Quackers]

I wish I could! I got another appointment to get punched in the face, twice by two strangers thouugh.

 

[Shekwan]

I suppose you can't be the saviour to all social mishaps...

Its a pity. I though we had it sussed.

 

[Tabster]

Have you tried Dave's Insanity Sauce?

Yes, I had some as a dip at a friends recently. Now I like fiery chillies, but this was something else, I couldn't believe how hot it was! far hotter than encona or anything I'd had before, so I had a look at the bottle, ingredients - hot peppers, hot pepper extract, other stuff. Hot pepper extract - I bet it's the stuff the police use in their pepper spray

 

[cardgame]

What inside joke am I missing here?

 

[aimeeandbeatles]

How did the Questions not Worth Their Own Questions Thread turn into a Discussion on Spicy Foods? Maybe a thread split in order, eh?

*pokes the moderators*

Actually: Capsaicin

For comparison:
Capsaicin: 16,000,000 SR
Pepper Spray: 5,000,000 SR
Ghost Chile: 1,345,000 SR
Habanero chili: 350,000 SR
Jalapeño Pepper: 8,000 SR
Peperoncini: 500 SR



I agree with aimeeandbeatles though, let's start a new discussion.
