Yep, never looked back. Wonderful combination of tastes.
An even more painful story regarding heat is when two friends of mine succumbed to that dumbest of activities in any bar. Being offered red hot chilli peppers and all the bravado that comes with it. I saw them through the window of the pub they later joined me in walking bow legged very carefully. Of course after the tasting they eventually used the men's room without washing their hands BEFORE as well as after. Boy did they regret it!
I'm sure it's happened to the unwary the world over, but it caused quite some mirth for the other regulars that day. And they never taunted me again about my caution with all things hot....

Haha...funny...and gross.
The closest I got to that was in a Vodka Bar in town (Liverpool) and someone would buy a rack of those random, flavoured vodka shots and everyone had to down one (or ten).
Well, one time, I got the chilli vodka shot!
Legged it to the toilets in The Flash Time!!
Threw Up!!
Downed a pint of water...and then onto the next pub

I once ate a piece of scotch bonnet for the hell of it. Had the hiccups for about ten minutes. Ok apart from that.

Ever since I was a kid I've enjoyed spicy foods. Nowadays, I love spicy Vindaloo, Madras, Thai curry, spicy chili, mustards, horseradish, and hot sauces of all kinds.
However, heat for heat's sake is a no-no. I want the heat to complement the flavor, not overwhelm it.

That video doesn't inspire confidence Jim! Just as I remember my own experience. Shame, because I do like cheese and onion pasties. The bakery chain Greggs do lovely ones over here. The knack is to get them when they're still warm, but not just out of the oven so they take the skin off your lips. I like to get 'stuck in', so warm is best...

Just finished homemade tortillas. The filling was a mixture of mince meat, bell pepper, red onion, oranges, limes, corn, chilli bean sauce and a mixture of spices ( dad secret recipe). Delicious not too much feeling bloated afterwards.
