    Well this was all Greg's idea, and at first we were just going to make it ghost pepper flavored. Until Greg suggested we add orange to it as well (he has a lot of good ideas). It was very hot if you couldn't tell from the video! About half the people had to spit it out after a while because it was too hot for them! So if you want to join the Hercules Candy Ghost Pepper Challenge record yourself trying the candy and share it on facebook, instagram or tiktok with the #herculescandygpc in the description! If we really like your reaction maybe we'll share it on our social media! Or you can just laugh at all those miserable souls who were brave enough to try it 😂

    💑 About Hercules Candy
    Hercules Candy has been on Steve’s side of the family since 1910(ish). When he took over in the 70’s, he anticipated after 10 years of hard work, he could move the business out of the basement and into a real storefront. Unfortunately, it took until 2018 for that to happen, but hey at least it happened! Steve and Terry own the shop, Craig (the social media manager) is their son, Cara (wrapper and shipper extraordinaire who is poised to take over the shop one day) is their daughter and Leah (who doesn’t love being on camera and is very elusive) is their oldest daughter. Karen has been working for Hercules Candy since the twins (Craig and Cara) were about 6 months old and everybody else is a new recruit. Don’t forget to subscribe and hit the 🔔 for more videos!

    The almond milk would technically not really work to help to alleviate the discomfort caused by the capsaicin as it does not contain casein. Casein, a protein contained in dairy products works like a detergent to pull the tiny capsaicin molecules from the pain receptors and wash them away. Now I need to go order some of this candy.

      The best remedy to spicy is a milkshake or ice cream. Both are dairy products that contain casein and they’re already cold.

      Any dairy product would cut it, as long as milk was used. And which idiot decided to use the whole bottle? 1 tablespoon should have been more than enough.

    Ironically, sugar can be an antidote for the burn. When I tried the Paqui One Chip Challenge this year (just don't) the only thing that killed the pain was eating a super, super ripe pear. Still had massive tummy issues, but the major pain was gone. I basically nursed a bottle of Pepto all day! Also, I do believe *ahem* Carolina Reaper peppers are even HOTTER than ghost peppers. So there.
