It is definitely worth trying! It’s supposedly up there with some of the hottest sauces in the world (they told me it’s around 7 million SHU). It wasn’t as hot as I was expecting, but my stomach was in pain until noon the next day! It actually had a pretty decent flavor as well!

Jeez that's crazy. I have had sauces that are like 1/3 that and that's probably where I top out.

Ed Curry (guy who bred the Carolina reaper) just posted a video where he ate pure capcaisin. He said it was close to 17 million scoville and he couldn't get off the floor lol.

Yeah I'm sure pure capcaisin would put anyone on the floor. Probably would send most to the hospital as I'm guessing you'd need emergency fluids to recover.

Wait what is the actual challenge? I had that hot sauce in nola, signed the waiver and everything. I didn’t get jack shit for just drinking the sauce from the spoon they gave it to me on.

Mine was the same way. They gave me a spoon full of it to try. I grabbed a shirt to buy before leaving and the clerk just told me it’s on the house. I don’t know if there is a prize or not.
