Not me either! I have some ghost chili pepper powder and my son said he could anything that was
spicy. So I fixed some wings awhile back and coated a few of them with some ghost chili pepper. I
marked which ones they were with toothpicks so the rest of the family wouldn't grab one by mistake. Problem was
the son caught on and pulled the toothpicks.  ??? Needless to say I was the one who got the wings
with the ghost chili.  :'( Nope never again!  ;)

Short answer, no.  I have no problem eating hot food.  It's when the hot food exits me that I have the problem.  No need to do that intentionally.

There is no justice in the world! And no self-inflicted pain makes sense. A man's gotta be careful with his HEAT!   ::)

I had bought a couple of packages of these. As of 2013 they where rated the hottest peppers any where in the world. I never got around to planting them as last year was just to cold to grow anything. Maybe this year  ::)

I'm thinking about trying to grow some ghost peppers and some trinidad scorpions this year but I've never had any luck starting anything from seed.

I would probably give it a go. I seriously eat anything hot! It can't be any worse than a spoon full of Dave's Ultra Insanity Sauce. I have done that before. Twice in one night. Why... I don't know?

Wingstop has their Atomic wings and I can sit there and polish off a couple dozen. Anyone who has had them before knows EVERYTHING burns ???

And yes I dearly pay for it the next day :'(

Give this stuff a try, you'll be drinking Ghost Pepper sauce like water to cool it down.  ???

I absolutely adore hot and spicy, but draw the line when the heat prevents the appreciation of the flavor.  I've not tried ghost peppers, nor anything hotter, but probably will one of these days.

I love hot stuff and eat it all the time with no problems.  However, there is a point where the heat level outstrips all reason and becomes an end in itself.  I can and do dig into jalapenos and habaneros, but anything hotter is just heat and no flavor.  This is all relative, of course.  Some folks consider mustard and ketchup "spicy".  Others, like me, put Sriracha or Cholula or Tapatilo on everything and regard it as bland without them.  Bring on the heat, but leave me out of the ghost pepper condiments  ???

It's too bad ghost peppers are sooo hot. They have a pleasant smell and a nice fruity taste at first but then the heat sets in and it doesn't go away. I have some ghost pepper powder and I love to add it to GB jerky and snack sticks. If you don't add too much it really adds to the flavor profile.

I had a friend awhile back who bought a bottle of "The Source", which is 7.1 million Scoville Units.   (Costs about $100 for a once oz bottle)

We would use it to add heat to the gumbo we make in 5 gallon batches.  All you could stand was dipping a toothpick into it (it's about the consistency of molasses) about a quarter inch, and then stirring the tiny amount that clung to the toothpick into the pot of gumbo.   We tried using a whole drop from the dropper ONCE, and it rendered the gumbo almost inedible, it was so dang hot. 

It was pretty great stuff overall-  added heat without changing the flavor of the gumbo like hot sauces would.   But MAN, you don't DARE get any of that on your skin, or you are in for a world of hurt for a LOOOONG time.
