Jeez, ghost peppers and the like are just torture. We only went to like level 3 Indian spice and siracha/chulua hot with the little tike. He’s coming around and likes spicy mustard (like cheap Chinese style), and hot chili powder meals. Not quite red pepper flakes unless they’re sparsely on pizza crust.
I love ghost, it’s a nice slow-rolling heat that builds in intensity and stays with you for a while. Unlike habanero, which hits you hard and fast, ghost sneaks up on you, so you can pace yourself to your tolerance even though the heat is very high.
But I’m also a spice head, so take that with a grain of salt. My kiddo will eat jalapeño and occasionally Serrano level but she doesn’t eat like Mom and I.
