    Ate a whole one by mistake. It had been cooked in a curry for a a couple hours and I thought it was a Squished tomato.

    It was actually sweet tasting, for about 5 seconds, then it ripped my face off.

        I was dining out once and ordered a spicy pizza. Had this tiny red chili pepper in the center, maybe the size of the tip of my pinky. I thought nothing of it and popped it whole in my mouth.

        I was sweating and crying for 10 minutes, 10/10 would do it again.

        Op’s description is legit mouth watering, and now I want a slow-cooked spicy stew with roasted whole chilies.

      I love the taste of habaneros. It’s just a shame that even habanero sauce is at the extreme end of my heat tolerance.
