Kudos to the news guy for eating that habanero, that's superhot for someone not used to it. That food looked amazing too

I literally have to eat a raw pepper with every meal...makes it so enjoyable. Awesome fruit

After I completed chemo and radiation treatment I developed an extreme love for hot peppers.

I got put in Facebook "jail" because I said chile is good for you! It is good for you! I live in New Mexico which grows amazing chile, and I've been eating it since I was a little girl. I have New Mexico grown green chile every day and I sincerely believe that it is an essential to maintaining a healthy immunity.

Mexican and indian people: I'm immortal 😆

I eat spicy food every day that means I live 200 years

“What are you experiencing right now?”
“My whole mouth is on fire” 😂

Pepper 🌶️ is my thing. Nowadays I can not even feel the hotness

[dacoup]

Love it when my food bites back, i get a nice euphoric feeling when my mouth is burning and the sweat starts to poor, if that wasn't enough i absolutely love the taste of peppers i don't know what it is because i come from a southern Euro family from the south of france who can't stomach even the most basic hot sauce but i'm out here eating ghost peppers and a whole range of different ones, i absolutely love it.

I believe in it! Jalapeños, Gingers, Garlics, and Onions!

That's very true! People who love chilli will have a chance of living longer primarily because of its anti oxidant and anti inflammatory properties...

[THEMEISTER]

In that case I'm gonna be young *FOREVER*

[jonlewis]

Clinical Trials?!?! What a joke...hot peppers have been studied and proved to be anti death for a LONG time.

[Paulzm]

I eat 1 spoon of Ghost pepper powder almost every day and now I'm trying to level up to Scorpion 🦂 Pepper powder, eventually I'll get to Carolina Repper level, I started eating hot sauce as a kid so I build my Spice tolerance over the course of years, over 15 years,
I also came from a Mexican Family so they always made Hot Salsa from Scratch, Red and green Salsa

"What are you experiencing right now?" - *keeps a 100% straight face* "Well, I'm in total agony at the moment.".

[beholdyourmother]

I must have chilli in my meals everyday.. can't do without it.

[lifeprojectG]

I eat jalepenos at least three times a week now because of the health benefits

[heididupont]

I would love to eat at this restaurant some day.

[DC_daze]

Dean Renolds really took a bite of that raw habanero like a champ. No way I would have done that 😅

[shaikhabdullah]

Looks like spicy food is way better for me to live young forever
