Delighted you dropped by

Oh, thanks. The lead-in to the story gives the impression the woman was entered into the book. Good catch.

[Hulka]

And don’t even think about what would happen to your “man part” if, er, uhm, you were “manly” with her.

She does look any the worse for wear.

I just bought a 1lb bag of Dried online...The box comes with multiple red warning signs on it!

I love chiltepins, but these have me shaking in my boots!

[JudgemAll]

I can’t wait for Fritos to come out with
“Ghost Chili Cheetos”. Does each bag come with
rubber gloves?

I think i need a tums.

[RightOnTheLeftCoast]

Well, she's smiling now, but check her again in a few hours when she's scooting around on the carpet begging for some frozen Charmin.

I love real spicy food but this woman must have some sort of X-man ability.

Or perhaps she put Novocaine (or whatever would deaden the ability to taste) on her tongue before starting.

[FastCoyote]

Afterwards, it was also learned that she had eaten her tongue as well.

[who knows what evil?]

Chocolate covered habaneros are one thing, but actually eating a Bhut Jolokia..? She is nuts...

Anandita Dutta Tamuly performed the feat Thursday

Chile today, hot Tamuly...

If you look closely you can see the seeds. There is one on her right cheek, just below the eye and two in the corner of her left eye/eyelid.

I bought some sauce from the Pepper palace in Gatlinburg a few years ago, i think maybe 2 people could handle it, guy from Trinidad and one Central American, no one else could take it.. claimed it was 1,000,000 scoville ... one drop ruined about anything you tried to eat, didn't burn so much as hurt...

Forgot to add if she was trying out for a Darwin Award in the Spontaneous Self-Combustion category, a subject that scientists have pondered for years.

HazMat might be close.

Bite into one of those, and it will give you a Mexican toothache.
