Haha, been there. My kiddo snuck a tortilla chip from my wife’s lunch that had been sitting in ghost salsa when she was around 4 or 5. And when she was a little older she stole a slice of homemade pizza that had ghost peppers on it.
Literal trial by fire.
Dude, read your own link. Hamburgers were literally the only item where the McDonalds wrapper didn’t win.
And the hamburgers weren’t homemade, they were from McDonalds.
This is how bullshit gets spread on the internet. People read like two words and then make the rest up.
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.
