What's the hottest thing you've eaten?

The hottest things I've ever eaten have all been based around Bhut Jolokias or some other derivative of the Naga.

I'd say the hottest was the home made naga vodka I made a couple of years ago. I just put a Dorest Naga in a small bottle of vodka and left it for two weeks, my god it would blow your head off!

An apple pie, microwaved.

I win, next question?

I think it'll be a single dried chile which my brother said "Eat this." so he could laugh at me... he's always been a bit of a tw*t like that.

nearly 40 years ago at the "Palace" * in Manchester. It served up mountains of rice and Ckicken (sic) with a choice of curry sauce. We worked our way up through Mild, Hot, Killer & Suicide then persuaded the boss to produce a "Special" just for us regulars. Then one night some tossers on the next table kept sending their sauce back as "not hot enough", eventually this bright red gloop came out which they took one taste of and refused to eat. Thoroughly pissed off, and pissed, by this time, I leant over picked up their bowl of sauce and drank it. How i did not end up in hospital I don't know, but it was worth it just to see the looks on their faces!

* The Plaza was a place of student legend at the time and the Palace was the competitor opened by (IIRC) on of the brothers at the Plaza when they had a falling out

Master A_T has had a permanent threshold shift... he doesn't notice the heat of chillies anymore and thinks 'normal' food is bland and boring... there is a downside to ruining your palate.

I used to like hot food, but the chillies play havoc with my guts.
I learnt long ago that if it burns on the way in, it'll burn on the way out!

And it burns, burns, burns,
The ring of fire, the ring of fire.
The ring of fire, the ring of fire
The ring of fire

Probably a Thai Red Curry, which on the scale of spicyness probably isn't that high.

Something I tasted at the Dorset Chilli Festival a couple of years back. Pretty sure this was it: http://www.scorchio.co.uk/chillipepper-petes-satans-shoot-p-1061.html

Other than that, a phaal curry.

I have a whole blog on this subject, but it was a Naga Pickle that nearly (literally) did me in. Lookie...
