There are a lot of descriptions of the feeling one gets after eating the hottest pepper on Earth. Based on experience, some say that the feeling is like pouring pepper spray on your mouth, others describe it as a spicy mushroom cloud trying to escape your scalp. There have been a number of YouTube videos where people eat ghost peppers and the reactions are the same: intense jolting and uneasiness caused by the 1 million Scoville unit spice. People say that the feeling resembles a rattle snake bite to the throat, others claim that it’s like drinking battery acid laced with glass shards. With all these comments, it’s pretty hard to believe that ghost peppers are used to cure stomach ailments in India, but it’s true! They believe that if the body is hotter than the surroundings, ingesting ghost peppers will culminate a healing effect.
