My brother, who regularly douses his foods in peppers, hot sauces, any spices he can find, etc., also did this challenge. He was in a ball on the bathroom floor, naked, sweating, shivering, and wrapped in a blanket for 2 hours.

He's able to drink hot sauce like it's fruit punch.

These chips are lethal.

I bought a 3 pack of nitro gummies.

The first one it was way too spicy but I was physically fine.

The second one I chewed a lot more and this one gave me stomach cramps and I fear the final one.

Oh geez. I like a little spice as much as the next person, but I don’t understand why some people just douse their food with it. Do they actually taste anything with that much heat on a regular basis?!

Depends on the type of hot sauce. If I would use something like Tabasco I would need to use so much for the necessary hotness level that the entire dish would only taste like Tabasco but I have a 1.500.000 scoville powder where I just have to use a little bit and the dish is sufficiently hot but still tastes like the dish is supposed to.

You also build up a tolerance so what tastes really spicy for one person is not noticeable for another.

It really only affected me after the fact. First 5 minutes was intensely hot but then it was manageable. I ate my lunch about an hour later and then I was in the bathroom feeling like my stomach was being ripped apart. No luck in throwing any of it up so I just suffered until it died down.

Same gimme any spicy food, but my sister stopped by with her hot single friend as a couple of us were trying a little of the chip....I ate the whole thing, played it off. Then "went to the bathroom" I was actually in my bed curled up in the fetal position in a ton of pain. Fuck those chips.
