I'm not eating any food that advertises what it will do to your asshole. We're adults here, you can just say it's hot. You don't have to say "We are very proud of the way our product will absolutely Sept 11th the hole you shit from." It's not necessary to bring my asshole into this.

Ok but what about a soothing breeze anus chocolate bar?

[โ€“] ikidd@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Do I eat it or just shove it right up there?

Much as I love spicy foods/hot sauce, this weapons grade shit is just silly.

I once signed a waiver to purchase a spicy chicken sandwich and will never do so again.

[โ€“] sheridan@lemmy.world 60 points 2 days ago (4 children)

I had the same sandwich (Dave's Hot Chicken reaper sandwich). I assumed it was just a marketing stunt. After one bite I had to go back and get a milkshake so I could sip it between bites to finish the damn sandwich.

I find it hard to understand how a potentially hazardous to health food item is even allowed.

What is this obcession with ever increasing level of spice in food, lately?

Because at some point all the flavour just goes away, replaced by a hefty dose of pain.

It can be fun to safely experience sensory extremes. Many people get an endorphin/dopamine rush from it.

Other than some gut irritation it's not a significant hazard. Like yeah keep it safely stored from sensitive people and pets also it's probably not the best road trip snack or whatever. Certainly less dangerous than alcohol, fireworks, cigarettes or texting while driving.

I never understood sweets with spiciness added. It just ruins the whole experience for me. Spicy on savoury foods is fine but not on primarily sweet ones.

[โ€“] Tattorack@lemmy.world 34 points 2 days ago (6 children)

I dunno. I like my chili flavoured candy.

Beside, wasn't chocolate traditionally eaten with chili by the natives? Or was it a spicy coco drink...?

[โ€“] VindictiveJudge@lemmy.world 27 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Chocolate isn't sweet, it's bitter. You have to add a lot of sugar to get the sweet chocolate we're familiar with. The Mayan and Aztec versions of hot chocolate were more like a spicy coffee than the sweet drink we have now.

[โ€“] Jarix@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

There's a coffee roaster near me, Republica Coffee Roasters, that has an Aztec hot chocolate/mocha on the menu. And is a spicy version of those. It's not my favourite coffee place, but I really like the spicyness if those drinks... Damn think I might go get one now that I'm thinking about it and it's raining today

A lot of Asian foods are spicy/sweet; it is great.

Wait, do mice like chocolate? Can they eat chocolate? Or is this one of those the-dog-will-shit-itself-to-death things?

iirc mice don't have the same response to capsaicin as humans - they can taste it, and don't particularly like the taste, but it doesn't cause them pain like it does in humans.

Reminds me of the time I lost an entire day to the fucking One Chip Challenge.

[โ€“] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 21 points 2 days ago (7 children)

I'm the "spicy guy" of my circle of people I know, so I always get brought in the challenge things and hottest x to try. Had the gummies and jerky, and beer, and all sorts of things. The chip has been the only one that I'd actually say was hot. Mouth was fine, but it made my stomach hurt for like 10 minutes.
