Surprisingly good new fast food spicy item is the ghost pepper loaded griller from Taco Bell.

Thought it was pretty good myself, but they should change the name. I don't expect a fast food item to be so hot it also sends me to the hospital. But with Ghost Pepper in the name I did expect more heat. I ate an entire one without drinking any liquid and was fine. It could have been way more spicy and still not fuck you up like an actual Ghost Pepper will

Definitely agreed. I got both the ghost pepper and habanero ones. No spice at all in the habanero and the ghost pepper was a pleasant heat but wasn't going to nearly fuck you up.

Does it have actual Ghost Pepper in it? I actually dislike the taste of Ghost Peppers. =(

Says ghost pepper sauce.

Interesting on the website it comes with ground beef.. mine was clearly grilled chicken. Will have to re-try it later.

From what it sounds like, it doesn't have much ghost pepper in it. I dislike the ghost pepper flavor, it just tastes funny. I might try one (they are like $1, so if it tastes bad I'll just throw it away).

Ate a large pizza for lunch/dinner, and had a 22oz bottle of a nice IPA for a late night snack.

A week has passed and I don't remember 100% what I ate that day, so there might had been a can of Pringles for a mid day snack.
