Spiciest Thing You've Ever Had.

I knew an Indian guy that could eat absolutely anything. He had lived in India his whole life except the last 5 years and was a chef in India (not a good one). Anyways a friend of mine who was into hot food had been growing some rare peppers that were so hot that no one would touch them, and he wanted to just grow them to prove he could eat one - stupid.

Anyways one day he invites me to bring my friend over (the Indian), he gobbles the pepper and says "That's not bad!. He fucked us and told us to take the pepper and chew it to release all the juice in our mouth before swallowing. So I and my friend tried one - we chewed one each. What a mistake. We didn't know what was coming. It hurt pretty quick, but that is just how it starts.

Jesus fucking christ. It gets hotter...and hotter...and hotter...and unbelievably hotter...then numbing hot...and then death like hot...it keeps going and you are so fucked.

I nearly died. Well I felt like dying. So did my friend who had been growing them. I felt my intestines liquify and you could feel them convulse. Numbness, sweating. Sickness. When I shat the next day I felt like a poker iron was up my ass and had to take the day off work. I walked around with no underwear on for the whole day at home.

It was a Trinidad Scoprion (name of the pepper).

My friend threw the plant out. And I punched him later on.
Did you know that some people in India don't even have Capsaicin Receptors? That means they could eat anything without feeling the slightest hint of spice, even the hottest ones like Bhut Jolokia.

That dish sounded so foreign I had no idea what it was.

To make a long summary short, they're basically Korean spicy rice cakes.
 
I never actually answered the question. The spiciest thing I've ever consumed in any capacity was a piece of a homegrown Carolina Reaper. Didn't like the taste. Didn't like the sharp, long-lasting tongue-scald. Didn't like the upside-down Vesuvius.
 
I did the one chip challenge two years ago and was in a bad way for the next two hours. The paqui ghost pepper chips aren't as bad but they're tolerable for me.

The last dab Apollo version is pretty gnarly, I ordered it and whew lad. All you need is a tiny dab and you're good to go.

The hottest thing I've had recently was at a restaurant called party fowl which has their hottest sauce the “Poultrygeist” falls at about a 2.2 million on the Scoville Heat Scale, complete with scorpion, Carolina reaper, cayenne, pure habanero, and ghost pepper. I took two bites of my food and wasn't right for a bit.

I've only had one too many of those Ghost Pepper Chips, maybe three big handfuls. My vision got fucked up and my legs started shaking. I don't want to go hotter than that.
 
Weirdly, even though I can handle most ghost pepper things, the molten chili chicken fire wok noodles by Nissin was just too much to handle. Only actually finished a bowl of it once.

A friend of mine got me a bottle of The General's Hot Sauce, 'Dead Red'. Despite the ominous name, it's not that bad -- but it's made with a ton of cayenne peppers, so it's a little on the 'one note' side. Still, it goes well on a number of things.

I admit, the grenade-shaped bottle is a nice touch.

When I was 15, I was wandering around downtown Boston, stoned out of my gourd. In Quincy Market, this guy with a little kiosk was selling his own salsa, different varieties and varying levels of heat. I sampled some that was so deep red it was nearly black. I scooped a bit too much onto the tortilla chip, and within seconds my mouth was on fire. It felt like a blowtorch was being aimed down my throat. I coughed and gagged and shrieked and stumbled away, and even went into a nearby pizzeria and bought some breadsticks to alleviate the misery. Didn't work much.

If you've ever tried an Actual Ghost Pepper, chances are it's likely way hotter than that said noodles, but now you made my mouth water for these kinds of noodles.

I've had that. It's way heavier on peppers than your average sauce (the 86% pepper content thing), so yeah, reasonably decent heat, but it gets absolutely blown away by "Shock & Awe," their habanero sauce (again, 86% pepper content). If you can get your hands on a bottle of that, I'd say go for it.

The bottle's nice, but the lid's kind of a pain, literally... that handle is attached to the lid, and when it turns it tends to want to whack your fingers on the hand you're trying to hold the jar with.

A local ice cream joint does homemade popsicles in a lot of goofy flavors. Every so often they do a jalapeno lime one that's actually really tasty, just enough bite that it complements the sour flavor nicely. But then one time they did a habanero lemonade flavor, and I thought, sure, I'll try that. Tell you what, eating a popsicle that burns your mouth inside out is a weird sensation. I got through about a quarter of it before I gave up.

Yeah, that's been my biggest complaint about the sauce. The bottle is a bit unwieldy. I've seen worse though.

Taste wise, as long as you like cayenne, it's good. It goes VERY well on pizza, in my opinion.

Mango Habanero ice cream is a trip bro. I agree it is a strange sensation when something freezing cold burns your mouth. Not my thing.
 
Bought myself this sauce said to be 6 million Scoville's. It's pretty small bottle compared to the others in my collection but one drop of this felt like someone put a burning metal rod on my tongue.

Also finally got myself this bad boy. Costed me 175 dollars in Canadian Money.
