She's crazy.

Yeah, definitely agree with the ghost pepper flavor. I think that's why you see so many fast food type places offering ghost pepper this and that. They add a touch of the flavor, and just reduce the heat down to palpable for the masses.

My introduction to ghost pepper was taking a straight up bite out of the side of one holding the stem. Big mistake. I mean, I like to think I have a pretty high tolerance compared to most.. It was an experience. Heart rate pumping. You can feel the burn travel down your body. Absolutely nothing to top that heat once it plateaued. But at the same time, it was a helluva rush. The second time I tried it, I didn't take nearly as much, but it didn't feel like half the heat of the first time. Had several peppers since that were supposed to be hotter than ghost pepper, but still didn't compare to that initial bite. The randomness is part of the thrill I guess... :D

I wonder what culture has the hottest foods? When I think about hot food I generally think of Thai food (though a lot of Thai food is non-hot and delicious), or South Indian.

However, I'd put my money on Sri Lankan. That was one of my two options when I was on my freighter (Sri Lankan or Romanian). The Sri Lankan food was essentially fire-eating. It was ridiculously hot.

Occasionally the captain of the ship (Romanian) wouldn't be enthused about the Romanian menu and would ask about the Sri Lankan food. Sometimes the dining steward (Sri Lankan) would let him try it, and other times he'd just say no and warn him off because he knew the dish that night would be too hot.

Coincidentally, I was doing some moonlighting computer work earlier this evening for a friend of a family member. Retired fella from Beloit, KS which is very close to my old stomping grounds. We were talking about spicy food somehow, and he asked me if I liked really hot sauce. Said he had a sauce with his name on it. As part of my payment, I scored several bottles of sauce, and some hot nuts. Apparently he's pretty well know out at Spicin. LOL

nice let us know if any of the two are homeruns

Arbys spicy shaved meat gelatin sandwich

probably gonna pass

Are all three of those from the same 'pain is good' outfit?

I've already vouched for PiG Habernero Garlic Salsa, very warm [but a slow burn, and not overwhelming until you've had a lot], very garlicky, very 'fresh' [ie, no syrups or fillers, basically just roasted tomato, and habernero with a little onion, other chiles, olive oil and citrus]

https://i5.walmartimages.com/asr/00a...2&odnBg=FFFFFF

I've used that Pain 100% on sandwiches; Firehouse Subs has it.

The problem is that I just don't like habaneros. It's hot, but the flavor kinda sucks.

Been making fermented hot sauce, salsa, etc...and every once in a while cut off a few pieces sprinkle some kosher salt on it and enjoy.

Im also planning to brew a pepper beer soon.

Pain is good makes some stuff I really like.

The Ghost Pepper and Trinidad Scorpion barbecue sauces are excellent. I love that scorpion on chicken and pork; has some pineapple flavor in there.

Yeah, they're all made by Spicin. Tried the 100% last night. It was OK. Not as hot as I expected. It was very similar to what you describe above, minus the garlic.

Ate it for lunch today. Surprisingly spicier than i thought it'd be for a fast food sammich. Not spicy enough to be memorable.

On the spicy scale, it'd rank around Hot Cheetos.

Put some Hoosier Daddy BBQ sauce on it for extra kick. That shizz be :fire::fire::fire::fire:

Arby's is disgusting imo. Their roast beef sandwich looks like Lindsay Lohan's STD ridden pussy.

https://cds.arbys.ca/assets/product_...le_768x640.jpg

no thanks

My travels are on hiatus until a new project starts, so I’m slumming it

Would try Lindsey Lohans roast beef.

That's quite enough from you.

I'll take both sammich's...

I gotta pimp this again here for anybody who likes the heat. These are seriously spicy, they will surprise you. Not kidding. They have the perfect mix of sweet gummy and spicy fire. Highly recommend.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07TJB6ZVJ/

I'd ****s with 'em!

Also, FYI... these nuts are really good. Will be picking up more of these...

No joke. They are hot enough that I've ate them really late at night drunk as hell, and went to bed, and then touched my eyes in my sleep and it burned so bad it woke me up.

https://i.imgur.com/8Gq2lMe.png

Shameless... LOL

Just chiming in here, as I had one of these today.

When I opened the box, I had high hopes. The red bun looked pretty menacing, and the cheese clearly had sprinkles of what looked like cayenne on it. There were also a few jalapenos hanging off the sides. BRING IT ON!

After a few bites in, I was thinking that I must not have hit the spicy stuff yet. There was quite a bit of mayo on the sandwich, so maybe that tamped down the spice a bit. Surely, as I kept eating, I'd find that killer spice that requires a quick drink of the supplied milkshake, right?

NOPE! I'd rank this as less spicy than Taco Bell's "Fire" sauce. Maybe they made mine too mild, who knows. Most likely this is just a gimmick to drive business in the door. If you seek out spicy foods, you can cross this off your list before spending your money.

As for the taste of the sandwich itself, it was good. Very flavorful, but not spicy. If I was at an Arby's and was in the mood for chicken and not roast beef, I'd get it again.

If I were looking for a good fast food spicy chicken sandwich, then for me, it's Popeye's. It's not all that hot, but it's delicious and well prepared by the restaurant closest to me. To be fair, I've had them at other Popeye's and they weren't nearly as good. YMMV.

Ironically, I know someone who refers to their vagina as an Arby's Classic Roast Beef.

It's only a challenge if you ingest it as a suppository

I'll need to see a side by side photo comparison to Lindsay Lohan's STD ridden nether parts to make a fair appraisal.

I tried the Diablo chicken yesterday, and was less than impressed. Hot Tamales bring more heat than that sandwich did.

Does Lindsey Lohan's vagina have anything to do with Buc-ee's beaver nuggets?

Oh yeah - now this shit is hot right here.

I have some skim milk on hand and it's pretty much just a temporary salve. Definitely think I'd be better served with something thicker like whole milk or ice cream.

Dayum - that's got some throw now. Nose is running and it hurts to exhale.

This stuff doesn't play around. It isn't quite burning in my chest hot, but my lips are on friggen fire. But you're right - this stuff tastes good. I may have to try the original to see if it's a little more 'eat this stuff for lunch when I'm feeling normal, not for dinner when I feel like punishing myself..."

So it takes about half an hour and everything calms down.

I suspect that means I have another hour or so before the REAL fun starts.

It's been real, GI tract...

I bought the 5lb bag awhile ago when you recommended them.

Love these. So good.

Lol! My first time trying them my reaction was the exact same way. "FUUUCK, that's hot...but I can't stop eating it." They definitely are both tasty and hot.

The regular version is much more tolerable. They also have different flavors that come in different color bags, although maybe those are a different brand.

I plan on stopping by the Asian market after work tomorrow, I'll see if I can snap some pics of the other bags.

One must ponder :hmmm:

I can confirm this.
The chicken sandwich was very good no doubt, but it was not very spicy. Stuffed Jalepeno cheddar poppers are 2 or 3 times hotter.

I just saw the Jack In The Box entry into the spicy chicken sandwich foray. Not close to me. Has anyone tried it? The picture looks like every other chicken sandwich ad.

Why would you get spicy gummies? Heck, just get the peppers. Spice needs to be on meat, even if it is labia majora.

Sweet heat. It's actually a very good combination. Sweet fruity gummy taste at first, and then a really decent kick of spice. I have a sweet tooth when I get drunk and dumb. I'm telling you, try it and you won't be disappointed. If you are, I will fully refund your purchase via CP Casino Cash. Promise.

Yeah, I agree with Fish. I've not had those, specifically, but I've had something similar. We do the snack crates from other countries with my son, and one time we got some spicy mango gummies (I believe from Brazil) and they were excellent. The sweet and the heat play well off of each other.

But I ain't refunding nobody's casino cash. [emoji23]

ATTENTION SPICY FOOD FANS

Have you had Melinda's ghost pepper sauce? It's advertised as "5 flames" or their hottest. I'm curious how this compares to other hot things you've eaten, as I find it really tasty but hard to believe this is as spicy as it gets.

ATTENTION SPICY FOOD FANS

Bump

Haven't tried it, but I find it hard to believe that anything using ghost peppers would be toward the top of the list. They're hot, but nothing compared to reapers, scorpions, or primos.

Yeah, Reapers are like Ghost Peppers turned up to 11. Very similar flavor profiles, just hotter.

Reapers don't mess around.

Thanks for the response. Interesting.. I'm trying to work my way up to that sort of stuff eventually.

FWIW, I've seen Melinda's in multiple chain grocers in case you're interested.

That reads like an advertisement. Melinda, you can send me a check when your profits explode. :D

My tip if you want to try super hot sauces but avoid (most of) the heat is to try it on Mac and cheese. You get the flavor of the heat and some of the burn, but the creaminess helps to keep it in check.

That said, going all in with it slathered all over chicken wings is fun too. Definitely gets tge endorphins going.

Dude, I try to refrain from grammar smaque. . . . But slavering something means to spit on it and smear that spittle all over.

Slathering might be a better option. ;)

No clue what you're talking about. :)

That said, the mac and cheese recommend is spot-on.

I think I've mentioned before, but the best way to get a lot of heat without hitting a point of no return is to make mac'n'cheese, and season it with Reaper or Scorpion infused salt.

You gotta season it anyway, and this way you only need a little salt, and the pepper will keep you mindful of HOW LITTLE. [ie, this stuff is POTENT]

Welcome to the Spicy Korean Noodle Club. Once you go Samyang, you never go back.

And i agree, they're tasty. Now that you've had 2x Spicy and understand what you're dealing with, find the original 1x Spicy.

The same exact flavor, slightly less heat. Still snot inducing, but more tolerable.

Face my man, I didn't have you pegged as a pepperhead. Is that a new thing?

I like heat but I'm no pepperhead. I love flavor, not pain.

Are those the ones in the black packaging?

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/...L._SL1000_.jpg

Eh, calling me a pepperhead gives me too much credit. I'm a big fan of Hot Ones on YouTube, which is where it comes from. But while I think that it's a fun party game of sorts to try super hot stuff (see my earlier post), I don't really use anything above a "5/10" or so on a regular basis. That said, I do enjoy the "challenges" just to try a variety of sauces and seeing what sticks around.

My favorites recently have been Jala Pepa and Tomasa from season 15. Those two are solid enough to keep around. But they're nowhere near super hots.

Yup, that's the one.

Damn me for just starting to eat keto for weight loss last week... I've been putting the ghost pepper sauce on chicken thighs. No easy way to cool down when I can't slug milk or eat a slice of bread. Once I hit my goal weight and start easing back into carbs, mac & cheese will have to be a go-to.

Walmart has 'em.

Grabbed a pack and fired one up. You're right - hot but tolerable. Could do the whole bowl without milk.

Did appreciate a quick drink of it at the end, though. I could even drink some Coke while I was eating it.

Excellent stuff. Worth the $7 for a 5 pack for sure.

Tried to get some of the Melinda's Ghost Wing sauce and they were sold out. I'll have to keep it in mind though - anything that offers a bit of a change from Franks is worthwhile. I like Franks well enough but it's just such a common flavor at this point. It can get a little boring.

I like Inner Beauty hot sauce, especially on chicken or fish. Another dude took it over though and reduced the kick. Don't get me wrong it's still good but neutered down from the original.

Mike Murphy an old KC talk radio guy always talked this up from his friend who invented it. I had the recipe once and lost it on an old computer. Discovered again from Breville and the originator Chris Schlesinger. Give it a try but you will find scotch Bonnets hard to find.

Looks like they didn't give him the correct bun.

Daebak Ghost Pepper noodles.

These fall in between the original and Samyang 2x noodles. The real problem is that I got the hiccups just as I started eating them and that created issues. They also don't taste as good as the Samyangs. The heat isn't as intense but lingers longer and builds more. Then it just becomes that hot for hots sake thing.

Definitely prefer the Samyangs. Just a more enjoyable experience all around.

DJ 1 month from now:

Being trapped inside a room listening to people inhaling noodles is my personal hell.

Would be way more intense than any level of spice could achieve.

That noodle sucking chick could suck the chrome off a trailer hitch!

I found some stuff called '18 Prohibited Curry' that costs a fortune online because there aren't any local distributors.

I ain't spending $40 on a bag of Ramen, but evidently these are pure hellfire. The folks that laugh at these Samyang things are like "nah, won't be eating those again..." I found one review that said "hey, I'm from Mylasia and have been eating the hottest foods I could find all my life - this isn't good. This isn't even safe..."

That appears to be the current gold standard of death ramen.

Ughhh....my wife will put these videos on just to **** with me. She knows i absolutely HATE the sound of people eating. Especially the mouth breathing, inhale variety. Shit triggers the **** out of me. If you chew with your mouth open i will seriously ****ing kill you. Involuntarily too. Reflexes and shit. Boom, dead.

LMAO

Death Ramen. Imma use that.

Ah, it appears that same chick has tried this stuff:

Even had her pausing and reaching for milk. This stuff seems brutal.

I have the same irritation with people eating/chewing. Like nails on a chalkboard.

And my wife and son love those mukbang videos where the people have mics right up against their mouth while eating...slurping noodles and chewing crispy fried chicken. It almost sends me into a seizure if I get ear of it.

My wife's favorite candy is Milk Duds (wtf?), the most laboriously chewy candy on the market. Like takes a good 30-45 seconds to get through one.

She'll get them every now and again for movie night and each time she grabs one I'll kick the volume up all aggressively just to let her know that I noticed and to make it quick.

Sweet merciful Jesus!

Also a notable distinction: The ghost pepper noodles create fire snakes. The Samyangs do not.

Just kill me. Please.

LMAO


My wife has patented pouring a box of milk duds into her popcorn, so I've got the worst of both worlds over here.

For your own sanity, just don't mention that combo to your wife.

I'm that way with the sound of people whispering.

Those commercials where its just whispering make me want to go full Frazod on my TV.

And ****ing Dots. My mother loves Dots. The milk duds of the fruit chew genre.

She's broken out a box during a road trip a time or two, and I wanted to shoot myself.

Dots are amazing. You shut your whore mouth.

JFC!

When I had to report into an office for work, if there was a half or full day conference scheduled we'd meet in one of the main conference that would have snacks put out by the admin lady. I'd show up early and remove those Nature Valley Crunchy granola bars before the meeting. No way was I getting stuck in a room with those things.

I know ol girl probably caught some flack for the room not being "stocked" but oh ****ing well.

Oh lordy lordy, my wife watches that shit too. I don't get it. Drives me up the ****ing wall.

She has this girl she follows who eats like a goddamn cave troll while gossiping her lame ass daily life drama. Not just eating with her mouth open, but talking while she eats too. With those sensitive mics picking up every labored inhale, snort and swallow.

I don't know how people watch that shit. It makes my skin crawl and pisses me off to no end.

For store bought stuff this is really pretty solid. Love putting it on breakfast burritos etc..
