I like the concept of the alarm bell. It'd make eating spicy stuff much more convenient.
I once made fried rice with orange and white chilli pepers... it burned all the way down and I had to throw it into the garbage...However, I did learn pasta and Salsa is a good mix.
I will never understand peoples' fascination with incinerating their inside during a process which should be a very enjoyable one.
Does eating really need to be made this complicated?
I have GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease).
I get burning in my esophagus alot. Nothing I eat is safe from the effect. Even plain white rice will do it, so I must take medication frequently. :<
... that... almost does make absolutely no sense. I find myself in agreement with the Pony. I eat to enjoy... not to worry about whether or not I will have stomach lining left.
Mmm, spicy food.
You only live once... enjoy the taste. Spicy ftw.

Only if you don't believe in reincarnation...
barbeque sauce is towards the upper limit of my tolerance of spicy foods (not the limit, but I don't have a good example of that)
The rest of my coworkers have much higher tolerances(and make fun of me for being 'bland'), and I know a couple who might be interested in this.
Interesting, but tells you a lot about the state of America that people are having to sign a waver protecting the resteraunt for serving them food they've selected and requested from a menu.
Well, do recall people so sue restaurants for getting hot coffee, a beverage they did, indeed request, simply because they spilled it on themselves.
I do a really convincing fall. Should I be applying my physical drama skills in shops across America?
Yes. And give us a share of the money.

12% per person? ..... Well, better get to workin.
... is that 12% of what you earn, or 12% less than what we're earning now?

The weird thing is that I can't stand hot peppers, but I have no problem with curry.
I'm not sure what it would do to your colon, but I do wonder if you're likely to have trouble, however, when the pepper hits the anus.
I come from a mostly cajun line, so spicy food is a staple here. My dad could take on those wings though. He'll sit and eat fresh habanero's and barely break a sweat. I think the only thing that's ever gotten to him is chinese hot mustard, and even then he's built up a tolerance to the stuff. As for me... no I wouldn't go near those wings. My limit is cayenne pepper.
Habanero's are good. Super spicy, but good. Jalapenos are, however, much too bland for me now. I have to find myself a good midway pepper.
I grew habaneros one year.
I tricked my little brother into eating one.
>:3
I use them in cooking once in a while. It's nice, actually, because I can get the spice I want in a dish, but there's so little actual physical pepper, it's not upsetting to stomachs as much as jalapeƱos.

Prilosec, take one a day and eat what you want.
The Oxnard chili fest occurs near here and I eat Habaneros in a weekly basis.
In my spice rack I have dried and powdered Red Savina pepper and they grow them around here, cause the Habanero just wasn't hot enough.
Pass the jambalaya and gumbo please. :D
I think there's a point for me where it passes from spicy-tasty to spicy-painy. I don't like that level of spiciness, although some people do.
