A mouthful of pepper spray
The world’s hottest pepper. I’ve had some ghost peppers before and that was about as much as I could stand.

Every few months to a year or so, there’s a new “world’s hottest pepper” that I never heard of. I can’t keep up. And what is it peppers are doing to get keep getting hotter than each other? And where is the official “Global Pepper Hotness Records Institute” and who’s in charge of making the official declarations that keep changing, is Al Gore involved, and…oh fuck it. They probably don’t sell those in my town anyway.

What I’d like to know is at what point does the shift happen from spice to an outright chemical burn?

Back in the 90’s / early 00’s, I was a chile head (my nick on message boards was Scoville). Dave’s Insanity was my ketchup of choice and considered pretty damned hot at the time.
It’s 180,000 Scoville.
Which is considered weak these days.
I’ve tried ghost pepper flavored things, and it was hiccup inducing, but I’ve watched too many videos of people eating them and not being functional for a few hours, and I’m just not that into the pain.
Still, this is one of the funniest videos you’ll ever see re: hot peppers – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MvK2Y1hv9mY
