    Trust me those peppers are no joke. I ate one in highschool for the school news broadcast and that thing had me pouring a river of tears that merged with a fountain of snot. It felt like eating acid. Once the initial mouth pain went away, my stomach felt like a nuclear fallout zone. I had to go to the bathroom like 20 times during the school day to try to make it feel better. I legit felt awful for like 12 hours after eating that thing

    @ssimpala1901 Před rokem +48

    I accidentally crossbred some peppers about 30 years ago when Jalapenos were hotter than they are now (at least store bought that seem to be grown for size and weight and not spicy heat), I grew 6 Jalapenos plants right next to 6 mild Anaheim chilies in super rich fertilized soil.
    When they were nice and ripe on the plant I made some spicy guacamole with the Jalapenos and threw a half dozen what I thought were mild Anaheim chilies on the BBQ to eat with the Fajitas I was making. I roasted those Anaheims nicely green and black and sliced them into long fat pieces to eat on the tacos I had made. When I took a bite of that first taco and swallowed before the heat registered in my mouth, that first hit the bottom of my stomach and I immediately started uncontrollably hiccuping for about 15 minutes straight with my stomach muscles contracting and expanding and my nose started running and my eyes watered like I had just for the first time seen the ending of Old Yeller. Those Anaheims ended up being hotter than any Jalapenos I had ever had by far. After watching this video I wish I would have kept some of the seeds!

      That said, being sensitive to other people’s spiritual proclivities is a very decent thing to do (remember that when in the presence of people who are of a different religion or sect than yours.)
      Also, having a little Christian compassion for people whose personal boundaries are different than yours. Being Christian doesn’t automatically mean having a stick up your southernmost portal. Give people a little slack for good natured humor, I’m pretty sure the Good Lord does.

      They really do have an awesome flavor! Been growing them 5 years myself and use them in everything. Make great homemade hot sauces and salsas with these and they go great on pizza!
