    Who knows. Bodies are weird and horrific. I did here from a nurse that some brave adventurer chewed and swallowed a 9,000,00 scoville gummy bear at a middle school this week. wonder how that will turn out.

      Just for reference, pure capsaicin is 16 million scoville

      So someone made a candy where over half of its mass is capsaicin. Even if you can stand the heat that cannot possibly taste good

      I like spicy food. I’ll eat the hottest hot sauces on the planet for enjoyment.

      I tried that gummy bear. I didn’t even eat the whole thing. I cut it into four pieces and shared it with three friends. NEVER AGAIN. It’s by far the spiciest thing I’ve ever tasted. It gets stuck in your teeth and keeps leaching spicy into your mouth for the next hour. I don’t have words to describe it properly except to say I will never do that again.

      Reaper Squeezings, Da Bomb, The End, Dave’s Insanity, The Last Dab, etc. I would eat again but I will never touch that gummy knowing what I know now.

        We need to expand the “Challenge” aspect in to a full fledged ritual experience where you commune with god while you’re screaming and rolling on the floor from the pain. Like cut it down to 8,999,999 scovilles and where that last scoville was slip in a little LSD or pcilocybin so when you come out the other side you can like speak to trees or something.
