Dave's Insanity Sauce

There is a chicken wing joint (Buffalo wings) near me that has different grades of hot to their wings. The hottest one, you have to sign a waver stating that they are not responsible for any injury or medical problems after eating.

Well my run in with Dave's insanity sauce went like this:
We were eating this catered cajun meal that was flown in on a private jet from Lousiana. The person who ordered it knew I liked hot stuff so they got a bottle of the reserve or whatever Dave's insanity sauce (The one rated about 200-300k scoville units). Cajun food is my favorite and this was a really special meal. I sat down with my heaping plate of shrimp, aligator, crawfish sausage, etc. My friend hands me the bottle and says "Just use a tiny bit, be careful". "BAH! I can handle anything!" I said.

Well I stacked over a tablespoon of the sauce onto a piece of crawfish sausage till you couldn't see the sausage anymore. As everybody in the room is watching, I put the bit in my mouth and................... almost threw up on the table! I painfully swallowed what felt like lava and ran to a sink to put my mouth under the faucet. For 15 minutes I couldn't take my mouth away from the faucet and after that I was drank about a half gallon of milk, and more then a glass of milk makes me sick but I had no choice. I couldn't eat for the rest of the day and I missed out on probably one of the most extraordinary meals. It literally took me a few days to get my full sense of taste back!

lesson learned: don't be a jacka$$ and ignore the big bold warning label no matetr how tought you think you are. 😛

Haha. Wuss. Read my post above. 😉

Funny thing is, even though I'm a hot sauce junkie, I still have a far better sense of smell and taste than anyone I know. 😀

Bah, you're all weak.

Two years ago my dad told me he would give me $30 to drink a shot of Dave's Ultimate Insanity Sauce(the hottest one, rated at Insanity++). Being the madman that I am, I told him I would do a double shot for $60. My dad even got it on video because we were on vacation at the time.

Well, it's been two years since then and I still can't hardly taste or smell anything. At least not like I used to be able to. And nothing is considered hot or spicy to me. I can eat jalapeno peppers like candy now.

Stay away from hot sauce that comes with a warning label that says things like: Use only 1 drop at a time diluted in oil, Do not ingest if you're pregnant or have heart problems, Keep out of eyes, etc.

Bah, Jalapenos are weak as far as peppers go.
 
my dad owns a store downtown TO, in the st lawrence market. we have daves, and the extra hot. *plug* PLUS tons of hot sauces for you junkies. check it out. lower floor.

its hilarious when people come in to try it. we give em this toothpick of it. even the toughest looking guys are reduced to hopping around. and i get the wide eyed "oh my god" a lot from guys who try and hold it in 😀

seriously though? have you consulted a doctor? You may have some permanent damage to your tastebuds/ofactory. not unlike the chemical damage of smoking and chew tobacco do to you after a long time.

You ruined your sense of taste for $60???
 
My ex once bought a bag of hobanero peppers because she thought they looked like little green/red peppers. She shoved one in my mouth and I crunch down.... it was a not a pretty site. I tried chewing it up so I could swallow, but after around 10 seconds, I couldn't stand it anymore. I spit it out and began cussing like a sailor.

She never bought any little green peppers again.

LOL, chewing won't help. I was dared to eat a Thai Chilli once and had a tough half hour, managed to swallow it though.
