A little thin for me so I cut it 50-50 with the thicker Wal-Mart brand hot salsa (which is also good by itself). I use it on everything except ice cream (so far).

If you can read this whole story without laughing, then there's no hope for you. I was crying by the end. This is an actual account as relayed to paramedics at a chili cook-off in New Mexico.
"Recently, I was honored to be selected as a judge at a chili cook-off. The original person called in sick at the last moment and I happened to be standing there at the judge's table, asking for directions to the Coors Light truck, when the call came in... I was assured by the other two judges (Native New Mexicans) that the chili wouldn't be all that spicy; and, besides, they told me I could have free beer during the tasting, so I accepted and became Judge 3."

But I guess it is a good thing he was New Mexico and not Texas
Something similar was reported here a year or two ago.
Thanks. That WAS pretty funny...(”Get me a beer before I ignite.”)
This came out a long time ago. I have a copy of it on paper well over ten years ago.

True, but it was good for a laugh to read it again.
Funny; like something from Mad magazine. But of course chili and pepper aficionados understand that to “beat the heat” you swish/drink milk, not beer! An enzyme in the milk bonds with the capsaicin and neutralizes it.
When I lived in Mexico for two years (as a young woman) and would have chili in a restaurant I would always check for TWO things:
1. If the chili BURNS my lips, then there is NO WAY that it will be allowed to burn my insides.
2. Check the bowls of salsa: if it's too hot for the flies to land on, then my tummy won't like it either.
BTW: Mexicans lead the WORLD in stomach disorders. Are we surprised? Not me.

Yogurt works well too . Worst thing to do is drink water.
One reason I do love Japanese food is because it is fresh, fresh, fresh. The only "sauces" used are IF ONE WANTS them, not to disguise the food.
Terrific.
Laughed until I cried the first time I read it years ago. Still funny today!!!
Almost better than Steve Blow’s colonoscopy column....
that’s crazy! and funny!
I guess some guy Bruce Cameron penned it...likely not as hot as one thinks as ghost pepper or habaneros would be much hotter than jalapenos for sure.
I read it and laughed so hard my wife asked me if I was ok; then, it was even funnier when I read it out loud to her...try that out, that is reading it out loud to someone...it is doubly fun and funny!
Thanks for posting...with all that is going on we all really need some good, clean, tear-causing humor. I haven’t laughed so hard in 10 yrs...the last time was that story about knocking someone out with the bible or something.
Actual account my ass. This story has been around a long time. Nice reading but a work of funny fiction.
They use spices to kill off stuff that is worse, in the food itself.

You are right. I did read it again and laughed. I did need that humor today.
add some of these.
they have a bit more kick.
;-)
check out some youtube vids of people trying them.
