Chili Pepper News — burn

Remember the first time you picked up a bottle of hot sauce. More than likely, you didn’t start with Mad Dog, we know. Most of our hot sauces are for the truly dedicated out there. People tend to start with sauces in the 2000 to 5000 Scoville range.

Seriously. Google returns well over a million results for “chili pepper burn” as if it’s a totally normal phenomenon. Of course, Google gives a lot of options for even the most inane questions, so it’s not as if we can use the search engine as any sort of proof. But, a lot of people have tried a lot of solutions to relieve the pain that comes with eating chili peppers and the capsaicin found inside.

t seems like there are more chili eating contests year on year. And, there appears to be a constant stream of radio DJs and TV hosts diving into the hottest foods they (or rather, their producers) can find.
