I've finally got comfortable at Habanero. I'm going to move up to ghost soon
But why?
Culinary pursuit!
That's an interesting way of spelling masochism haha
Well, at least for me, it isn't actually something I'm actively pursuing. I like spicey things that have a kick, but you get used to the heat, so you gotta turn up the heat for the same experience. I guess in that aspect, it's kinda like drugs.
You can get a sort of “high” from it. The feeling when you are sweating from some demonic hot wings can be mind altering in a fun way.
Also tasty. Ghosts have a bit of sweetness to them. Would pair nice with chocolate. Habeneros and mangos are a pair like peanut butter and jelly. Or Carolina reaper in a block of nice cheese, so good.
I am also a masochist though, so YMMV. I could give the same explanation for why I used to let guys whip me on weekends.
I'm still working on getting comfortable to Cayenne. I can eat them, but I devinetively can't eat a lot of them.
