Yeah. I need a whole lot of soda to wash those down. Which means I pretty much can't eat them. I've had two small bags from Quiznos, and both times I sort of relished and regretted it at the same time.
If there's a Tijuana Flats in your area, get the Spank My Ass and Call Me Sally habanero and jalapeno sauces, and then get Chet's Gone Mad (CGM).
To buy CGM requires that you sign a waiver. It's basically liquid pepper spray. It comes in a little eyedropper because you only need to put one drop on your food and then OH MY GOD I CAN SEE FOREEEVEEERRRRRRRRRR *signal lost*
Wellll... You know Minneapolis is the market for which "extra mild" salsa was invented, yes? Because those darned scandihoovians can't take anything too spicy (at least, not the amurrican variety of scandihoovian).
With that in mind, you'll perhaps understand why I sometimes call Seattle, "Minneapolis-by-the-Sea". Because, see, I grew up in El Lay -- was the only anglo on my block for many years, in fact -- and what I think is "hot", and what the locals think is "hot", are two entirely different things.
I rarely deliberately seek out hot and spicy foods. But my baseline is a lot higher than many local to these parts.
*^*^*
{and we'll just make a passing obligatory reference here to who i think is "hot," and strive not to run it into the ground like last time, ok? ok.}
{especially since no one else has made such a reference. which is a damn shame. hmph.}
But my baseline is a lot higher than many local to these parts.
I hear that. I usually hear "wow, this is really hot" from my parents while I'm adding crushed pepper flakes and special sauces to make my portion of the meal far hotter.
is my preferred flavor. Of course the "regular" corn flavor is one of my dominant comfort foods these days. I have yet to try the HabaƱero ones yet. I have few enough functioning neurons as it is.
