Carolina Reaper
on: March 31, 2021, 03:55:30 AM
HELP MY STOMACH HURTS SO MUCH PLEASE HELP I NEED HELP IT HURTS!!!!!!!

Hello everybody,
It has been 40 mins since I did the stupidest thing ever in all my life. My friend paid me 30 bucks to eat that sh*t. A big dried Carolina reaper. It wasn’t worth it. For the first 25 mins, my mouth burned like hell. Milk, bananas, bread, even peanut butter didn’t stop it. Now, I’m on the second stage which is my stomach burning like hell. It’s so painful. What’s worse... I had burritos for dinner. With beans... a lot. HELP!!! My stomach hurts sooooooooooooooo bad. Like there’s this big fiery hole in it that’s getting larger by the minute. I have just tooken a bunch of antacids and they’re not helping at all. My dad says in a f-ing idiot with the f-ing adjective with it. HELP!



HEEELLLPPP!!!!! :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(

Well, would you say you bit off more than you can chew?

Meh, you'll get over it.  Casein, and time.

That was not wise of you to try to eat fruits without a chaperone, though, so shame on you.

If it's still in your stomach or upper intestine.....you'll have a nice surprise later on.

Tucks Medicated Pads in your future.

Good luck sitting down on the piano stool.

You are kind of a fool!

EDIT:  I didn't see the first time reading that it was a bet!

Hahahhahhahhhahhahhahahha!

I bet three people playing eight-ball after work today, but nobody was injured!

BUT You can build up a tolerance to ghost peppers, Carolina reapers, and even the tame little habenero or Scotch Bonnet peppers.

So.  you're on your way to becoming an internet celebrity.

hahhahha you bet somebody to eat that!!!! 

I have no sympathy, but I am laughing a lot!

You don't know pain until you have given birth, when you feel you are splitting in half! 

In the event of you being serious,  watch those  spices and  hot peppers, you will  wind up getting stomach ulcers!   Can be very nasty.

Would you say "you can't believe you ate the whole thing" (an old US advertisement for....some kind of antacid or stomach calmer)?  Maybe a small bite, but, I don't think you're supposed to eat one whole.

A $30 bet is not inconsiderable:  you know, the equivalent of a nice Henle edition of something.

I think you should listen to your father!

Although, I've had one friend get unreasonably upset when she had a bite of pizza I'd made with quite a few fresh habaneros right off the vine, and I didn't think to warn her (I didn't actually invite her to eat the pizza, anyway).  So, I understand that some people can get caught unawares and become enraged while their heads are on fire like the Ghostrider or something.

I think you got paid in cash to be a test experiment.

At least it's a lesson.  I eat very hot peppers all the time, but every person I've ever heard of who has tried a Car. Reaper or a Ghost pepper says it's like eating death.

IIRC the compounds in capsicum fruits are very different from acidic foods that may be neutralized by adding a base or simple dilution  After all, gastric acids are many times more potent than something one might eat. 

Either addition of casein or another solvent molecule is the ticket. Or application of a local palliative/nerve agent like lidocaine.  However, you will suffer.

Start with a milder pepper next time!  You could probably get away with eating a whole habanero or Scotch Bonnet, even if you're not used to it, without too much trouble beyond the initial shock.

These fruits are loaded with vitamins, I suspect.  Birds eat them all the time, but they're not affected.
