I can buy the normally very deliciously painful spicy stuff from Walmart now, instead of the pan Asian supermarket. I’ve noticed that it seems to taste wayyyy less spicy. It feels closer to a hot Cheetos spicy than the proper actually painful way it used to taste.

    I really need things to be habeñero level at least. Sometimes I’ve gotten a grinder of dried ghost chiles to get things up to snuff.

      A mix of that and tomato paste, fish oil, garlic, ginger would probably mix things up for you.

      I kinda want a jar of ground scorpion pepper. Ghost peppers and carolina reapers just taste like how gasoline smells to me, scorpions taste fruity for their heat
