Hot Peppers

[Missdirected]

On the lighter side of peppers...

I was at a friends party once. All the "tough" guys there decided to try an assortment of hot peppers the host had provided. Many a man came to tears as the peppers went higher and higher on the Scoville scale.

There was one man inparticular whom I will never forget. After sampling many of the peppers and consuming many a beer he excused himself to the restroom. Upon his return he seemed rather uncomfortable. Come to find out he hadn't cleaned his hands. After a couple of minutes he was curled up on the kitchen floor, in a fetal position, writhing in agony. It was one of the most hysterical things I have ever seen

Just a little laugh for you guys, now please continue with your regularly scheduled programming.




By the way, great topic NetDoc.

Hey now, I didn't say I didn't feel bad for him. I just couldn't stop laughing. Nor could I see through the tears I had from laughing so hard. Trust me it is an enduring story even he tells.

Maybe I should have added noone was really hurt. Well maybe the guys pride a bit for trying to be so tough (I think it was the habanero that got him). It was all in good fun.

I can see the funny side of it, I was having a go at you .

When I was in the army we were sent to London to do public duty's (Buck palace an all that stuff). On our first free night we were going out on the town to see if we could get lucky. One of the guys decided to put after shave you know where, he was the only one that did not go out that night.

Serranos can also be quite warm.

I have a bottle of "Dumb *****" hotsauce in the frig. First ingredient is habaneros.
I witnessed one brave soul become visibly ill after loading his bowl of chili with "Dave's Insanity Sauce". We warned him that it was going to be hot but he insisted he could take it.

It truly is difficult to not laugh. It's like watching someone's hat blow off in a high wind.

:rofl2:

My ex-husband truly enjoyed his hot stuff. He collected different sauces and such from all over. One evening our son had a friend over for dinner and the hot sauce was out. Now this child has enjoyed many antics at our house, inclusive of eating live crickets. Boys Anyway, he decides he wants to try this sauce. With warning from my son and husband not to do so, he is still determined to try this particular one. We sat down for dinner and he kept begging. Finally, he put a drop on his finger. The agony on his face was priceless. He never said another word through the entire dinner :doh:

A bunch of us ordered Sezchuan chinese. One of my buds held up a pepper and asked "Hey, what's this? It looks like a worm."

I replied "Tis a hot pepper."

"Really? How hot? Can't be that hot. I am going to eat it."

"You'll be soooooorrryyyy ... " I smiled.

He was sorry.

And for a real hoot, I have video tape of me taking a blast of CapStun (pepper spray) in the face as part of a training exercise. Cripes that stuff is awful.

Perhaps someday I'll have it converted so I can post it on my website. Of course it will also need heavy editting. Lots of silliness about "oh could we do that again .. I forgot to remove the lens cap"

While stationed in Washington DC, my first wife and I went out to have Thai food. It was her first adventure into this wonderfully tasty stuff.

Growing up in Tucson she and eating Mexican food on a regular basis, she felt there would be no problem eating Thai food. Consequently, she ordered something just as hot as I did.

She's eating away and get's one of the Thai hot peppers on her fork, the red ones. I told her not to eat it, but she insisted it looked like a piece of cinamon stick and besides, it can't be any worse than Mexican peppers.

What followed was so damn funny I was in tears and couldn't eat.

She bit into the thing and shortly let out a howl that got everyone's attention. Next she gulped down the water in her glass and mine and begged the server for more.

She finally settled down and then blamed it on me for not warning her.

Now, what part of "don't eat that" is not a warning? rofl

I have a similar story. While in Mexico years ago, my husband at the time and myself had been out snorkeling on a reef, for the better part of a day. Finally, we packed up our stuff and headed out to get some food. It was nearly dinner time and I hadn't eaten a thing all day.

We get to the restaurant and my first stop is the toilet. I join him at the table where he offers me a chip that is loaded with this green stuff. He says to eat it. I did. I still don't know what it was but holy smokes was I in pain. I downed his beer (I don't drink beer) downed my drink and ran to the bar begging for more to drink.

At the time I didn't know that bread was way better than a drink and wanted to kill the barman for offering bread rather than another drink. After a few minutes of behaving like a maniac the pain went away.

He sat smugly at the table with a rather large grin on his face. :14:
