If we figure out how. Sure.

Just plan it on a day I don't work so we can have mojitos and popcorn while we enjoy the self inflicted torture show.

 

[Rod]

Hey Rod - if the participant is unable to recite the alphabet in the allotted time will they fail the contest?

I'd like to say yes, but I wouldn't be that cruel.

 

[Johnny B]

Going with some home ground habenero burgers tonight. Depending on how it goes, I may be game for the ghost pepper challenge.

 

[Johnny B]

Not sure why it posted the image twice. New phone. Sorry.

 

[Rod]

How'd it go?

 

[Johnny B]

How'd it go?

It went better than I expected. I put a quarter of a pepper on the burger, minus the seeds and I handled it just fine. So I ate half of the pepper with seeds and it didn't kill me. It was uncomfortable, but it wasn't horrific. I did like the flavor though.
I'm leaning towards accepting the challenge. I want to do some research to see the cap difference between the two before I commit.

I enjoy some heat - but that's just torture! Good luck to the victim!

Half a habanero with seeds is a lot less than a Ghost pepper. Article says 2-10x hotter. Since you are half with seeds, double it to 4-20x hotter. c'mon Johnny, you can do it.

 

[Johnny B]

Yeah, still not sure. It's the 10x the heat that's got me sweating... maybe a picture of the prize would up the enticement...

 

[KayakinBoy]

Ya'll are wussies. I eat sriracha on my eggs every morning, and that stuffs hot!

I would do this, but I enjoy not spending the whole day in the bathroom.

I've got some Jalapeno pickled eggs if ya'll want some.

 

[b.dawgson]

^^ Ghost peppers make jalapeno anything seem like a tictac!

Just do it, I need some entertainment

 

[ilikefishes]

I am with Succubus. Just do it and give us all some entertainment value. CJ has already done it so we know he can handle it.
