A pharmacy in Texas took to Facebook this week to respond to an alleged incident in which a teen reportedly stole and ate a Lil’ Nitro - described as “The World’s Hottest Gummy Bear” - and almost immediately suffered the consequences.

A “very sweet girl” then came inside the store - the pharmacy’s employees thought it might be his sister - and removed the boy from the store. She also offered to pay for the tea, according to the Facebook post.

Once outside, employees said they watched as the teen “heaved” all over the sidewalk.

The girl then returned to the store, purchased a Powerade for the teen, and allegedly tried to explain that the boy had just eaten something spicy on an empty stomach.

After the teens left, employees noticed that a Lil' Nitro gummy candy - advertised as “The World's Hottest Gummy Bear” - was missing from the shelf.

said, "9 million Scoville units"

For reference
tabasco out of the bottle is around 2500 Scoville units
About 25,000 Scoville units i use a couple drops for my spaghetti sauce pot. If i wanted it hot I would put in 3 to 5 drops.
A million is the typical pepper spray. The hottest pepper spray are around 5 million and the lowest around 500,000 Scoville units

I’ve read those reviews. Hilarious.

There’s a Darwin Awards keyword? Highly unlikely that this extremely painful gummy would cause either death or sterility.

I could have lived a happy life without that image.

One of my co-workers grew a bush full of habanero peppers in his office. We are both fans of that pepper. A few co-workers stopped by and decided to have a go. One of them was prematurely bald and it was amusing to watch his whole head turn bright red...and he maintained his composure. The janitor tried one...moments later he was running across the building to the restroom. Heaved his guts out for a few minutes. Some can handle them, most can not.

By comparison, a jalapeno pepper has about 8,000 Scoville units.

Pure capsaicin is about 16 million Scovilles.

I’ve grown, dried and ground up many of the worlds hottest peppers and they are the one thing I will mask for. They are far more dangerous than CoVid.

Why...why would something like that even have a market?

Well, the entertainment value here alone speaks for itself. If I owned a store, I'd stock up.

We grow Reapers. My wife made some hot sauce using them one yr and it ate through the jar lids.
If she is cooking something and comments it is HOT do NOT ingest it.

[ExTxMarine]

EXACTLY! I like a little heat, but it has to add FLAVOR...I don’t want spicy just for the heat’s sake!

That’s one of the reasons I do not like Tobasco Sauce...the only “flavor” it adds is VINEGAR, and some spice - YUCK!

Stick one up his arse.

When I was very young, those Red Licorice Ropes were just five cents. I ate so many I was very nauseous. For hours. To this day I avoid ANY red licorice.
