The devil has taken me
After seeing many reviews on this pepper and countless videos of people trying it I accepted my fate and tried the fabled carolina reaper. After it entered my mouth the first few chews were not bad, and it actually had a sweet taste but after I swallowed to pepper I realized what i had just done. It tasted as if i had just swallowed lava that had been set on fire and been shot into the sun. After about 2 minutes of agonizing pain I decided that I could relieve my mouth of the pain and i drank a glass of milk, with a few precious seconds of relief I had a moment to realize how my body was reacting. I was drenched in sweat and there was a copious amount of mucus dripping from my nose. I then swallowed the milk and the burning continued. After about 10 minutes of me trying to cool down my mouth with different dairy products I let the pepper win, and I puked. That was a terrible decision. Due to pepper being in the vomit the horrid burning feeling was now in my throat as well as my nose, and there was no way to cool that burn. The feeling of hot pepper burn in your nose is one that cannot be described, only experienced. The feeling is similar to that of grinding up a pile of hot ashes and snorting them for 30 minutes straight. After about 40 minutes the burn in my mouth and nose was gone, but pain in my chest was still uncomfortable. If felt as if a man was using hair dryer to set the inside of my chest on fire. And after a few hours that pain had subsided. It was not until that night that I realized the game was not over yet. I awoke at 3 in the morning with terrible pain in my stomach, the pepper was not done. I sprinted to the bathroom and every bodily function that can happen did happen, at the same time. It felt as if i was spewing lighter fluid from every part of my body, and the devil himself was setting it ablaze. This pain continued on and off for the next 24 hours. In conclusion the pepper has a nice sweet taste, but a bit of a kick. 10/10
