This just happened recently at work. There's 3 of us who like our food
"spiced". None of us like it ridiculous, but we all have different heat
levels we like. One of us got a bottle of "Ass Burnin' MoFo *"HOT"*" sauce
or whatever that if you took a toothpick & put a single pinhead size drop on
something, your mouth spent a half hour recovering & we put the bottle in
the company fridge for "future" consideration on what to do with it.
WEEEELLLLLLL the new guy sat down & thought he'd try some. I'm the type
that I always warn everyone that "it's hot" but wasn't watching the newbie
spritz liberal amounts of this sauce on his snabbitch. I've never seen
anyone run that fast & I swear if he could've put his mouth under the water
cooler & just let it pour down his throat, he would have. Yes, it's funny
right now, but I was concerned at the time. I've read but never saw anyone
"hurt" from peppers, but was concerned this might be it.
I am smilin' right now,
Paul
