On clearance at Walmart 😁

if it only measures concentration and not spice, isn't it misleading to advertise and compare products with it? apparently hot cheetos are 5x spicer than 3x buldak, which is just not true in the slightest.

I keep seeing their ads, but the problem is it's all disgusting AI. Like obvious, the people are warper and not real. The food isn't real. If you can put money into an actual shoot commercial, why would I think you'd put proper resources into your chicken?

Damn this is So good, imo it's more flavourful than the Belizean Heat and definitely more spicy, I took it to a new level that's for sure

La Costeña - purchased in Mexico

A popular craft burger joint in my town once introduced what they claimed was the spiciest burger in the country. I didn't take the claim seriously (since people in my region have never been known for their love of spicy food, rather the opposite), but I ordered it home anyway for fun, and oh man, that was one of the biggest mistakes in my life.

I think I almost died that day, came to my senses only tomorrow. At first it was a regular spicy burger, I managed to eat more than half of it before the horrific agony began. I screamed, cried, rolled on the floor, tears flowed like a river, drank 4 liters of milk, threw up 2 times, rinsed my mouth from the shower head for 20 minutes, and so on...

Later I heard that these morons somehow got hold of chemically pure capsaicin and added it to the burger sauce. The burger itself was removed from the menu after a couple of weeks and they pretend that they never served it

Anyway, after the incident I noticed that when I eat very spicy food it becomes very bitter for some reason, and everything else in my mouth becomes bitter too, with medium and slightly spicy food there seems to be no problem

What happened to me?

Just got a friend of mine some seasonings from flatiron pepper co, the ones I got are:

1. Ghost pepper - roasted garlic/toasted onion
2. BBQ RUB - Dark & Smoky
3. I can’t feel my face

If anybody owns these specific ones, was just wondering what you guys use them primarily on? Thanks in advance!

My son and I are spiceheads, my husband can barely tolerate a jalapeno. When I make my all day chili I put some I can't feel my face in it and let it simmer all day. Not to bad, nice kick. Hubby, too much for him.

I am trying to start small like simmer jalapenos in the chili (seeded and ribbed).

How do I raise his tolerance to at least habanero?

We had our new fridge delivered yesterday so I claimed the left door as the spicy door. I'm still fairly new to hit sauces that aren't Tabasco since that's all we ever had in the house growing up. My pops put it on everything.

So far I'm a big fan of all the Yucateco sauces, especially the Black and Caribbean. I'm obsessed with the fire roasted Jalapeno and fire roasted Habanero from Melindas on my morning omelets. The Melindas ghost pepper wing sauce is the only thing I use on wings anymore.

I can't go back. It's amazing.

im still rather new to spicy food, so the only thing I regularly eat is 3x Spicy Buldak. How much more spicy would something like this be?

I wouldn’t say I’m a spice enthusiast (I probably wouldn’t spend a shitload of money to try raw chilies), but I do love spicy food. I’ve had Dave’s Hot and it wasn’t too bad.

Anyone have any good suggestions for spicy foods/restaurants they’ve tried in Seattle or on the Eastside? I’m looking for smth that’s spicier than Dave’s but also flavorful!

Also completely random but this is my first reddit post ever 🥳

Putting together a few snacks for my Dad and want to find him a hot trail mix. He likes things as hot as they come so I don’t want to get him something that says “spicy” but doesn’t actually pull a punch. Any recommendations? TIA!

Ilove hot sauces, but even with mild ones i immidiatly start sweating while eating. But other than that i can handle them pretty easily. With stronger ones the same thing, just sweating but little to no pain and loving the taste. But when im thinking about hot sauces, watching shows like „the hot ones" or seeing others eating hot stuff its exactly the same. My face starts sweating. Is this normal? If not is there anyone with the same „issue"?

Couldn't pass this up but I'm not sure how to use them all. Will definitely roast/freeze any extra but want some suggestions. First though was poppers.

Has this question been asked here yet?

I know buldak is supposed to taste like chicken but when I eat it its just pure spiciness. Is this just a me problem or is it like that for some of you?

so i completed the waiver chicken heat level called '' surface of the sun'' in hot phoenix az. its way hotter than a daves reaper. someone else suggested a place called '' monroes'' but ive heard its not as spicy? does anyone know any other super hot chicken places out west? i keep hearing off '' howlin rays'' in LA, but havent tried it yet

anyways heres my eating in one take, my stomach was on fire for 2 hours after

Desert Heat has been my go-to for years now and is by far my favorite dry rub.

I don't live close enough to just buy them from the restaurant and they charge so much more for it on Amazon, so I'm interested to see if anyone knows of something else to try that somewhat tastes like DH but hopefully with a little more kick to it.

Not looking for a DIY recipe that other people have asked for in the past - just looking for something close (but different).
