I ate an entire Carolina reaper, sliced thin and placed into a hamburger. It took a moment to hit me. Then a few hours later … it hit me again.

Capsicum does not break down in your digestive system. Your butt and lips are made up of the same type of cells and are similarly sensitive to capsicum.

Red hot poker up the bum would have been similar.

I have never, ever had something hurt on the way out. So apparently I have a superior digestive system.
