rainbowberry said:I've never suffered with the eyes but believe me I've suffered with it everywhere else. Sometimes I find the worst burning is when I get in the shower the morning after chopping chillis, my hands are so painful under the hot water, same with washing dishes, but not so much the evening of chopping them. I've had trouble sleeping because of burning hands.
billyboy said:Blimey,will I ever learn..... I was outside talking to my chilli plants and this beautiful Caribbean Red Hot pod was asking to be picked, I cut it open had a sniff mmmm awesome smell, had a taste, wow delicious! the heat built it was bearable no problem, thought while its cut open Ill get the seeds out and save them, (no gloves) well 30mins later the left hand side of my face is melting, my eyebrow on that side feels like its icy cold, the top of my hands are white hot esp that bit between thumb & forefinger, the skin on my left shoulder has changed colour.... all the while I can still smell the delicate scent this pod has emitted. think Ill just ride this one out
Pequins, and some Scotch Bonnets.DevilDuck said:When IGG passed through here last month, he dropped off a bag of peppers that had a ton of Fatali, a bunch of his famous pequinero, two Naga Morich pods...I don't know what else.
I've doen that. When I make my Dave's Zesty Blend (Dave is suposidly sending me the coffee grinder so you'll be getting the batch I owe you soon), I use a coffee grinder. The very fine grains of the powder just fill the room and I've got snot and tears running everywhere and it acts up my asthma like noone's business.DevilDuck said:Hunan hand...pfffftt! I think I just got a case of Hunan Lungs.
