Wow. I'm sorry that happened to you. Hell of a life setback, but congratulations on all the improvements you've gotten back so far. Keep that shit going. Id hate not being able to go camping and fishing, so you gotta get that back.
I appreciate the encouragement, genuienly.
Its... been wild.
Kind of just ended up actually living through the uh Fight Club line: "It is only after you have lost everything, that you are free to do anything."
Was quite a bit of a perspective shift... and I'd previously been working with serving the homeless at a shelter (ironic), but nope, even that was nowhere near sufficient to fully understand what its like.
But yeah, it did net result in me finally defeating my impostor syndrome... I actually have genuine self confidence now.
I have literally survived things that ... I literally saw kill other people, directly in front of me.
Made my way for a good bit of it by basically being the only person around that had basic, functional first aid training, and I more or less traded that for food, cigs, 'reputation points'.
More or less dumb fucking luck that I remembered some trauma oriented medical training I got at gun range years back, and that I was able to hold onto a good more or less medical bugout bag I'd put together in case of emergencies.
Local firefighters were a lot more helpful and trustworthy than local cops, in terms of actually helping out with dire medical situations...
So I am a bit pleasantly biased towards firefighters in that way too, haha.
Anyway yeah, one of these days, I'll get to go on a hike again, and that'll honestly be me being a happy and fully content man.

Chili flavored? ewww. Cinnamon flavored? Oh yeah! Turn that spicy up!
Chamoy on fruit or candy is awesome.

For sure on Da Bomb. I'm from Kansas City near where it's made and have been using it since 1999. It tastes bad on its own but works great to make other things hot. I keep it around (ground zero) to ad to other hot sauce and salsa and ketchup bottles and Sriracha and BBQ sauce I buy and to ad to soups and chili to make them spicy. It's great for adding heat to stuff that tastes good. Dave's is just tasty and goes right on sandwiches and stuff.
Yes, indeed. I find it too metallic tasting. No idea what it could be. I've bought it twice now, but I think I'm just going to stick with Dave's Ultimate Insanity and Mad Dog 357 (oh you simply must try them).

Scoville is measured by blending or breaking down what the capsaicin is in and analyzing what percentage of that is made of capsaicin. Pure capsaicin is 16,000,000 scoville. Half capsaicin is 8,000,000 scoville, and so on. Since the gum has like 8 ingredients in it and the ingredients are legally required to be listed in order of amount the food contains, and the pepper extract is listed as the 8th ingredient, the absolute highest scoville the gum could have is 2,000,000 and that's only if all 8 ingredients were in equal amounts, which is pretty much a zero chance. In all likelihood the gum is between 300,000 and 800,000 if I were to make agood guess of it.
They must be kind of inconsistent with the chips and the nitro gummy bear, because when I did the nitro gummy it was a lot less hot than when I did the chip.
Your explanation doesn't seem to match Wikipedia or what Google's AI summary says on how Scoville's are calculated. It's essentially a parts per million capsaicin x a scale.
In any event I can say the 2022 One Chip challenge and eating a dried Carolina Reaper seems about the same to me. Only did the chip once but I've done reapers a couple times and they're certainly hot, but I've never struggled with anything hot. Doesn't bother me in the restroom either like so many others... not sure why. The one time I did the gummy.... way hotter than a pepper or the One Chip. Not even close. Wouldn't recommend to anyone that found the chip or a straight pepper an issue. And the gum? Like I said it's devious in how much capsaicin you're forced to swallow while trying to get to the place to blow a bubble. About 5 minutes after completing the challenge my stomach started to feel like there was a balloon inside it. Told my wife I'm either gonna have a monster burp or I'm gonna puke and then the evacuation started. I'd do it again probably if I had someone doing it with me just to be entertained by their reaction, and to see if my stomach would respond the same way again. Wouldn't recommend to anyone that hasnt challenged themselves at extreme levels already though. The one I ate was no joke.

I never thought I'd see El Pato ever referenced online. It's my go-to. Dirt cheap and I can eat it by the can on tacos or burritos. Mix it with cheese for a really good dip for chips.

Ok but what about a soothing breeze anus chocolate bar?
Do I eat it or just shove it right up there?

I know main dishes are spicy sweet. I just said I dont like sweet desserts and candy and similar.
You didn't clearly define desserts/candy in your first comment.
While I understood what you meant, it wasn't that clear in a broader perspective. English eh? So easy to misunderstand each other

Yeah the main comment is not as clear but the first reply to absGeekNZ is clear enough I think.

Chocolate isn't sweet, it's bitter. You have to add a lot of sugar to get the sweet chocolate we're familiar with. The Mayan and Aztec versions of hot chocolate were more like a spicy coffee than the sweet drink we have now.
There's a coffee roaster near me, Republica Coffee Roasters, that has an Aztec hot chocolate/mocha on the menu. And is a spicy version of those. It's not my favourite coffee place, but I really like the spicyness if those drinks... Damn think I might go get one now that I'm thinking about it and it's raining today

I'll occasionally make up coffee in the morning with chocolate, cinnamon, and a few shakes of cayenne pepper. Coffee shop I went to once did the same thing, called it an Aztec Mocha. Very good.
Lol I didn't even see your comment before I replied

They also addressed that comment and answered it directly in response to desserts. Which you did not engage with.

I have no idea what coffee shop it was, just some random place my wife and I stopped at while traveling. But yeah, the mocha with cinnamon and cayenne is great, especially on cool and rainy days. The heat from the spice adds to the warmth of the drink.

I do not see it that way. At least not really. They went with main dishes again and then secondary for desserts. I did answer and just explained my stance.
But we now know what I meant so no fuss.

So are shrimp and lobsters, basically. Some cultures eat dogs, others eat chickens, and some eat crickets/ants/weird-sea-crustaceans.
I'm sure that some of the foods I ate as a kid would squick out many folks, but that's not due to anything inherent in them. There's nothing weird about eating 'bugs,' it's just a weird semi-trained quirk you have.
I watched a Youtube video by Adam Ragusea about eating insects. He theorized that the only reason why bugs aren't delicious is because they are too small to remove out of their shell. So if you shrink a lobster abd have to eat the entire thing, it would taste like any bug.

I've had mad dog 357, the 357 silver edition, and the 357 gold. Gold is supposed to be hotter than the silver edition, but the bottle I had of gold was a touch less spicy than silver. None of the three actually tasted hotter than the 321k da bomb, but they were sure better tasting.

Thank you so much for your insight! I'll be placing my next order for Mad Dog 357 Silver after your endorsement. Thanks again, ColeSloth! Greetings from Holland (where the locals think white bread is too spicy)

Lol. Not much better than most local folk here in the US Midwest. Enjoy the sauce!
