If you have never eaten a super hot...

Had birthday sale.  Sold to a few people who just bought cause it was my birthday.  People I know from other forums.  Folk who had absolutely no clue how hot super hots can be.  One said he chopped a bunch up and put them in a burrito.  Now he is living that Johney Cash song about sitting down in a burning ring of fire.
 
Got me to thinking, if you have never had anything over a grocery store hab, would some of the super hots seem so over the top?

:lol:
 
 
Hahahahahaha
 
Yes, some of the Superhots; Will, "seem over the top" to a Novice who had previously eaten nothing Hotter than a Grocery store Hab  :twisted:
I love introducing someone to just how hot it can be, it's always seems at least a little funny too  :mouthonfire:

Some the super hots still seem over the top and I eat them every day.

I think it is a lack of caution thing.  The one guy said he chopped up a bunch of them and put it on his burrito.  It just seems like a person would have more caution when eating something they'd never tried before.  Maybe nibble.  So I wonder if maybe people who haven't eaten super hots just can not fathom how hot they can be.

Earlier today I plucked some round little yellow thing.  I forget what it is.  Traded plants with someone to test each others boxes for shipping.  Never having tried it before, I nibbled at first even though it was tiny.  It wasnt over the top at all, but I didnt know that till I put it in my mouth.  Now thinking perfect for stir fry.
 
Super hots are a whole different class of pepper in every way. I never allow anyone to take one or a part of one without dire warnings. Still, some must learn the hard way.
 
I prepped myself for eating superhots by eating a whole raw grocery store hab every few days. They were certainly hotter but I think it did a pretty good job getting me in the neighborhood. I even handled the reaper without freaking out too much. Then my belly said "Fhkd you!" And I had cramps for a while but my mouth handled it pretty well. :)
I think these people have never had anything over a serrano.....
 
I have been eating supers for as long as they have been available, but when Sicman sent me this box of pods, I took them to my friend Pat's pizza shop and we dove in eating three in a row. My mouth was hot, but it has been a while since I had done this. My insides did not take kindly to it, I had a burning bum at work in the morning! Seems hot sauce and fresh pods have different effects on the bowels.
 
I sat down to my supper,
'twas a red super hot chile. 
Said my prayers, and went to bed.
That's the last they saw of me. 
 
Don't murder me. 
I beg of you, don't murder me. 
Please, don't murder me. 
 
I have has store bought sauces that had ghost peppers in them and I enjoyed them.
Yesterday was the first time trying a fresh ghost pepper it was a chocolate.
I first tried the oil and it was hot out of this world  I started to hiccup in five minutes it pasted then I tried the pepper itself and it was soooo hot but I enjoyed it I started to laugh it was hot and good at the same time spouse says I am crazy I said maybe but you can not explain the feeling you get.. so I made a pizza and put it on it gosh it was the best pizza ever....
 
   Now I can not wait for the peppers I ordered

That second strophe is nearly a haiku.
 
A Dedication. To all the SuperHot Heads out there. I think this song pretty much sums it up.

I shouldnt be surprised.  I make knives as kind of a hobby business.  Sell them at craft shows n the likes.  The number of times I have seen someone take a knife out the sheath and run a thumb across it to see if it is sharp is unreal.  I think people just sort of act without thinking.
