Peppers should be reversed, hottest to the outside edge

Unless you eat pizza like this moron

Who is that guy? What dumb idiot, eating pizza like that. Luckily the American people would never elect such stupid dumb idiot like whoever that guy is.

[–] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 47 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'll bet he is stupid enough to look directly at the sun!

Obviously no one would vote for that guy. What would the other countries think?

[–] tanisnikana@lemmy.world 23 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He looks so dumb, I bet he can’t even spell “coffee.”

[–] HurlingDurling@lemm.ee 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He's probably not from new york. I heard you can get lynched if you eat pizza like that in new york

Firstly, that guy looks like a fuckin idiot eating pizza like that. Second, the ninth circle is frozen over in Dante's bible fanfic, so idk maybe by that logic this is the right pepper order?

[–] ramenshaman@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I suspect that's from when stuffed crust pizzas started becoming a thing.

[–] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

Yeah, but they picked this moron because he already ate pizza that way.

[–] PapaStevesy@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

Plus the ninth ring is in the middle, so it makes sense.

[–] AbnormalHumanBeing@lemmy.abnormalbeings.space 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I think there's a missed chance to have mint and other "cooling" herbs on the outer rim

[–] Nora@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 day ago

Oh gods, the whiplash of something like that might be so much worse than anything else, I approve.

Unless you eat pizza like this moron

It's a red flag

[–] thespcicifcocean@lemmy.world 58 points 1 day ago (4 children)

I feel like the pizza itself should be arranged the other way around, with the hottest on the outside and the mildest toward the center, so that the more you eat the more pain you experience. Nobody eats a pizza crust first.

However, that would ruin the Inferno reference.

That's the definition of tragedy: a great pizza ruined by literalism.

[–] BastingChemina@slrpnk.net 7 points 21 hours ago

On the other hand if you arrange it the other way around you get more of the spicier stuff.

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 4 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Nobody eats a pizza crust first.

You would be surprised. I have met such people. In specific circumstances, such as stuffed crust, I will occasionally eat pizza crust first.

If going by the book, the very center should be mint.

Truly an Italian hell. Mint on pizza.

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Japanese mint oil. I believe that would be a very interesting experience.

Last year I planted some pepper plants, jalapeno and (what I thought was) jabanero. The peppers on one of the jabanero plants had these tiny little bumps on them and they eventually turned red instead of the usual orange of the jabaneros. When I ate the red bumpy ones, it wasn't so much that they were hot as it felt like I'd just been punched hard in the lips. I thought that they were just some kind of weird mutation, but it turns out they were actually Carolina Reapers that had been mislabeled at the plant store. I like hot food, but that shit was too much for me.

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 7 points 22 hours ago

Those are ROUGH. My pug ate some heritage seed peppers called Royal Black. He found them to his liking.

My dear friend has some pot plants.

Her dog discovered pot accidentally.

Then her dog discovered pot intentionally.

Then her dog discovered pot aggressively.

Now she has a greenhouse, and her dog is on a programme.

[–] futatorius@lemm.ee 3 points 12 hours ago

We made some cannabis butter once. Then, rather than throw the plant residue away, we used it as mulch in flower pots. Our ever-inquisitive dog ate it. She behaved bizarrely for a day, was still a bit loopy the following morning, and has been fine ever since. The plant residue now goes into the compost bin, which the pooch hasn't yet figured out how to get into.

What is this? A stuffed crust commercial? Who eats pizza from the outside in? The reaper will completely mar your capability to taste the other layers of hell’!

You start off with the fire so you can progressively cool off.

That's an interesting way of spelling masochism haha

I'm still working on getting comfortable to Cayenne. I can eat them, but I devinetively can't eat a lot of them.

[–] gofsckyourself@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago* (last edited 12 hours ago) (4 children)

I take offense that hatch green chiles are claimed to be less spicy than jalapeños. Also, habaneros are pretty often not that spicy, though plenty of them are.

[–] whodrankarnoldpalmer@startrek.website 4 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Supermarket jalapeños these days are really lacking in heat- I’ve done zero research on this but 15, 20 years ago they had much more of a kick.

Shouldn't there be seven hot peppers?

[–] Zorsith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

There almost are. 7 hot peppers, bell pepper, and poblano

Did he enjoy the experience, even if short-lived, of being able to breathe through his nose?

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

I took him in as a stray foster dog who had been found on the street. I've spent thousands on his care. I don't claim they're healthy at all, but he's a delightful pet and I'm nursing him through his very geriatric years. I absolutely love him and he was a hilarious monkey back in his younger years. I'm just reminiscing on his funny days because he's having bad days lately.

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (4 children)

It's actually harmful for dog's kidneys to eat peppers, onions, garlic, or mustard.

It's basically fatal if they eat grapes.

[–] AA5B@lemmy.world 4 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Where do you see that for peppers? Google tells me bell peppers are fine for dogs but spicy peppers will upset their stomachs. The rest, sure

Don't forget to mention what xylitol does to dogs.
Small amounts of arund 2 g per 10 kg body weight are very likely lethal within a short time if not treated instantly.
Xylitol can be in sugar free candy or chewing gum potentially making one piece of them a lethal dose for small dogs.

Wait until you try Dante’s DiGiorno Giovanna ! It traps you in a time loop where you eat it over and over again, forever. Simply delightful !

[–] beejboytyson@lemmy.world 3 points 7 hours ago

That nice butthole simulation

Pro move: Dehydrate all the peppers and sprinkle on top like God intended.
