Pepper X


 As stated in my previous blog entries, I ordered some pepper X off ebay.

"Pepper X measures an average of 2.693 million Scoville heat units (SHU), beating the previous world record of 1.64 million SHU held by the Carolina Reaper.[1][2] While the seeds of the chili pepper produce no capsaicin, the chemical which produces the pepper's heat, the chemical is produced in highest concentration within the placental tissue holding the seeds.[5] As claimed by Guinness World Records, the curves and ridges of a Pepper X chili create more surface area for its placenta to grow"

Seems to be potent enough. Although my hopes are not very high considering how lacking the last dab hot sauce was. I expected it to be much hotter, intolerable, but after my experiments, I found it quite lackluster. Yes, very spicy. Yes, very intense. But nothing that really surprised me. It was all within reason.

So as to verify my bottle is not just a bad batch, I purchased the peppers themselves to do another challenge with. Today is my "friday" as it is the last day I work before the next 3 days off where I can record this "challenge"

I'm wondering how many I should eat. If I should just eat the whole bag on camera and talk about something? Maybe read out loud some light reading material to show my functionality and capability after consuming the supposed "Hottest Pepper"

It actually makes me laugh thinking back on all those viral youtube vids of people eating "spicy" things and turning into a mess over it. What a bunch of babies. Maybe they're acting up for the camera? I'm not sure. Can't trust anything on the internet. Either way, this viral hype pepper is on my agenda for after work tonight. I've recovered enough from the repeated last dab challenges I've been doing so I'm not too concerned. There's very little discomfort in my guts now so I think we're greenlit to carry out this experiment.

I sit here and wonder, if this is the hottest thing man has created...

Is there anything beyond that? Because this is disappointing.

What do I challenge after this?

Cuz this is just a condiment.
People are so over dramatic.

hardly gets my heart pumping

One thing I find myself doing a lot is checking my own health markers. I try to stay on top of my own health, mainly due to a lack of health insurance, skepticism of doctors and my own curiosity regarding bodily health and function. To preface, I am a heavy user of cannabis. Specifically, extracts and oils. My main vice is THC-H, but also includes terpenes and other analogs of THC-9 which is deemed illegal beyond a certain threshold(Makes no sense because it's illogical) Cannabis, Marijuana, Ganja, Buddha, you name it, it's called many things. Cannabis sativa, Cannabis indica, Cannabis ruderalis[a] As an understudied medicine and plant(In terms of how it benefits people because big pharma are corrupt and morally bankrupt), I took it upon myself to measure my own usage and effects on me as an individual. Not systemically, but just playing it by ear and ball parking, because I can't be assed to do it formally. What I've noticed in my usage is my tolerance for anything has...

After work thoughts...

There was some sort of party or something going on at work today. I didn't bother to look, but the owner packed me food to take home which is what's pictured. Clearly some hispanic thing, I assume Mexican but the entire central america's has these kinds of dishes so I can't say for sure. As I'm about to eat, I think about the stuff I said today and wonder if anybody actually even reads that stuff. I digress, time to eat and sit on my thoughts while I chew on leftover food. A feast for sure. Guacamole, salsa verde, salsa, cilantro, cabbage, radishes, empanada, tacos, taquitos and one disc shaped thing I'm not entirely sure what it's called. I'll google it later, looks like a mini pizza. update: it was a sope I got about halfway through and tapped out. Consolidated into one to eat later. She even packed me some dessert. How sweet of her. update: I googled the dessert, it seems to be a mexican hojaldre pastry I believe it's apricot jam on the inside bas...
