Just ate one.

It's incredibly unpleasant (feels like your mouth is being stuck by hundreds of bees), but it's tolerable if you can handle spicy food. I never felt like I was going to throw up or anything.

Well, for some reason Youtube will not let me publish the second of 3 videos because it thinks it's the same as the first video because the initial frame is very close to the 1st.

Why the recorder did 3 videos? I'll never know. But here's the squad.

I missed out on them being on sale, I love the ghost pepper but they are uncommon around here. They're doing a promotion where they print a code inside bags and you enter it on their website to see if you win one. I happened upon a few bags of the Haunted Ghost Pepper bags in a grocery store a few weeks ago and got all 3, just opened my last one and entered the code and this one was a winner!

...that being said I'm terrified lol, I find 3 or 4 of the ghost pepper ones in quick succession to be almost overwhelming. But since I got it, I have to try it. Says it will arrive in 2-3 weeks, hopefully it's quicker than that.

Did the 2020 one yesterday... *Language Warning*

That was pretty hilarious. You were pacing in your chair if that's possible. Liked the sprint for the sorbet too.

Never heard of this before this thread. Wanna try it now. Do you find as you get older you can't handle hots as well as you used to? I'm 38 and I feel like I don't have the tolerance like I did earlier in life. More fire poops and upset stomaches. I think my insides are fine but who knows.

Update: just went online and ordered 4 for me and some friends if they are willing. Last year they sold out apparently but they are in stock now if anyone is interested

My tolerance is higher than ever. I've had hotter but this is engineered to linger.

I ate one on a conference call at work. Hot but not that bad. The ghost pepper ones have better flavor.

Anyone here try the 2019 chip to compare? I had two of those; round one was an exceptionally bad experience and round two I was one of two people (out of ten) that handled it perfectly fine. Eager and terrified all at once for this next chip. Lol

If I took two bites then swallowed sure. But I chewed it like real food and that thing was hot. I've had hotter but this was really hot and lingered forever.
i put the whole chip in my mouth and chewed on it for a solid minute lol. i have a high tolerance for things like this. i use a lot of very hot sauces daily on food

I have 2 chips but I'm waiting on friend(s) that are willing to do it with me.

I love spicy foods and have a high tolerance so when I did this by myself and recorded it last year I never posted it since it wasn't entertaining. Make no mistake, its probably the spiciest thing I've ever eaten, but it was just me pacing around the kitchen saying "this is real hot" and drinking milk lol

One of my friends did this then drank a shit ton of milk and vomited

Not sure why any reasonable person would do this to themselves

For people who have done this years version... Where exactly does the pain target? I eat super hots or use some of the stronger sauces available with almost every meal I eat. The top of my tongue, lips, roof of my mouth and the back of my throat can take a serious beating. If a pepper specifically targets the sides of my tongue I can't handle the pain though. It's the only pain that makes me go for relief. If I have to worry about that I might skip this challenge.

From 'quake area to big OH.
My wife found these on clearance.

Fire Lime, Haunted Ghost Pepper chips.
And 2 of the one chip challenge chips.
Each about $1.

Fire Lime was not hot, my 3 year old wants more. The Haunted were quite hot. Haven't tried the challenge yet. And no, the 3 year old isn't trying anymore.
