Eating a ghost pepper and going through the stages of pain it brought upon 14 yr me also taught me how to mentally muscle through pain
I remember eating a small piece of a jalapeno when I was around that age, and the pain just wouldn't stop and I couldn't deal with it.
Then in my 20s I was growing habeneros and ghost peppers and I'd just, like, pick a ghost pepper off the plant and eat it and it would be a bit warm, maybe sting a little, for 5 minutes.
I should grow hot peppers again, maybe try to get some brazilian starfish peppers because those were mild (about on par with habeneros) but they had such a nice flavor to them they stand out as one of my favorite peppers.
My dad's college roommate and close friend earl would put ghost pepper in his tacos. He's the type of dude that would drink a hot sauce called "colon annihilator" or some shit. Anyway he's the one who gave me that ghost pepper, he told me not to touch my eyes but I forgor ๐. I miss him
