The Carbonara one's outstanding, I like them all but that one is my favorite. I see a pic of the 3x in the link, the 2x makes my nose start to run, I haven't tried the 3x but I can only imagine it's fuckin spicy. Even the normal flavors that don't mention spicy have a kick that's probably too much for a lot of people. I mean I'd never even guess a Carbonara flavored ramen would be spicy at all.
 
These are fantastic, and honestly described. If it was typical American snacks, they'd be called flaming hot ass reapers or something. These are somewhat spicy, just as they state. They taste great, and are very addictive.

I watch Cowboy Kent Rollins on Youtube all the time - it's a cooking show presented by an old cowboy chuckwagon cook. So Mrs Ned bought me this for Christmas, and we're putting it on everything, including the chili that Mrs Ned made last night:

I've been making Thai Curry using "Mae Ploy" curry sauce for years. Its pretty much my favorite meal. Its got a nice heat to it on its own, but it is better if you add some fresh chillies as well. My wife is not a pepperhead, but she tolerates it well on account of how delicious it is.

I was surprised the Campbells Ghost Pepper Chicken Noodle Soup actually had a decent heat level. I had assumed it was just a gimmick like so many other self proclaimed HOT things which are way too mild when compared to how they are marketed. Way too much sodium in it to resemble anything semi-healthy, but it tastes all right.

Eating Pringles Hot Ones Rojo Los Caliente, these are legit spicy I am impressed. And they have nice Mexican flavor, I've had Rojo burritos that had whatever chili's they use here. I've never had the Hot Ones Los Caleinte hot sauce, but that's what these are supposed to taste like. The heat lingers and my lips feel hot. While I could stomach much spicier, these will definitely be way too spicy for people who can barely handle Franks or Sriracha.

I'm shocked, all the other "spicy" Pringles are laughably tame. 7.5/10 on spice, 9/10 on flavor. I'm sure these are a limited-time thing so I don't think I'll find them again.

&edit&

10 minutes have passed, I'm still eating them and my nose is running a lil bit.

I picked up some of the hot ones los calientos verde chips the other day. They did seem pretty hot to me. I find myself eating 5 or 6 of them, and then stopping. It seems like the scoville is successfully able to slow me down so I dont eat all the chips in one sitting.

My wife tried one, and she hit her limit with just one.

Taste is kinda more like "bbq" than verde salsa though. Still, pretty good overall. I'll grab the rojo next time i hit the store. Never even seen or tried a "spicy" pringles before, these kinda took me by surprise.

The normal spicy pringles AKA the Scorching line are weak. They have an Extreme Scorching Buffalo and there's nothing extreme about it, It's like 2/10 for heat. I've never had anything Hot Ones, but watch the show. And these actually live up to the hype of the show. They also have Hot Ones Hot Pockets which I now want to try. An actually spicy Hot Pocket would be something else.
 
Just picked up the Pringles Hot Ones Verde, the Verde flavor's great, if you've never had a Mexican green sauce I can't explain how it tastes. But it's spicy and delicious. These aren't nearly as hot as the Rojo ones, but I'd still say the heat will be too much for average folks.

Glad you like em!
I love tomatillo and anything salsa verde, which is why I was drawn to them.

Have a nice weekend!
 
I need to pick up a tomatillo sauce one of these days, was one of the things I liked most about Chipotle. I have a locally made serrano hot sauce that I like, found it because a local restaurant had some available as a condiment, hadn't had a serrano based sauce before that I know of.

I like the Herdez Salsa Verde for premade, its not very hot, but has a nice taste. Its readily available and generally pretty inexpensive.
I would just chop up a fresh habaneo, or add something like the Mexico Lindo habanero Hot sauce to amp it up a bit. https://pepperscale.com/mexico-lindo-red-habanero-hot-sauce/

Of course you could use Serranos instead of Habaneros. I love Serranos too!
