The hottest pepper I ever ate was at chinese place.
The waiter laughed at me and said”Fiwa Quacka”.
I might have had some in Okinawa, they were about an inch long and IIRC were yellow. Locals would nibble on one end while eating their meal. I made the mistake of eating one whole.
Many years ago, I was at a Chinese restaurant with friends. One decided to show he was tough and put one of those fried up red/black peppers into his mouth. He lasted just a few seconds before grabbing a water pitcher from a passing waiter and drinking it down.
