A couple of guys at work have been "tricking" people into trying to eat chicken wings called flatliners, they are insanely hot wings and these guys kind of badger people into trying them for their own amusement, the people who try them end up gagging, choking and generally miserable for half an hour or so.
I have tried a taste of the sauce and it is very hot, but I had a wintergreen lifesaver in my mouth at the time and I think it may have countered the spiciness a bit.
So, that made me wonder if there may be some way to beat these guys at their own game.
If I could come up with something that would neutralize the spiciness, and get them to go "one for one" with me on these wings hilarity would ensue :laugh:
First, I love spicy food, I eat the dried red peppers that are used in spicy Chinese dishes, I use lots of fish sauce at the Thai restaraunt I go to, I eat jalepenos and half the time they seem lame to me, so I am conditioned somewhat to spicy food.
Second, I believe the biggest effect of the sauce used on the flatliners is the burning feeling it gives you when you get it on your lips and skin around your mouth, I was thinking about using some chapstick or something and plugging my nostrils(discretely)
Third, I want to use some sort of buffer, for taste and feeling, maybe some altoids and anbesol?
Has anyone done anything like this before?
