I am such a sucker for spicy food even though it ALWAYS comes back to kick my ass. I had a good friend who won a big chili cookoff in East Texas a few years back with "Best Overall and "Best Hot" out of 30 or so competitors so it was Really good and Extremely spicy! So my dumb ass eats two big bowls and woke up in the middle of the night literally doubled over in excruciating pain while laying in bed. It was brutal!! Still the best chili I ever ate though.
When I went to college, whenever I'd get a sinus infection or a cold, I would order from this place that voted "Baltimore's best wings", they were marinated in hot peppers...and they were hot as a mofo! Had my nose running...and it made the sinus headache go away, and the mucus or fluid would drain out. Sniffles, gone...
But, go to the bathroom in the morning? Oh, it was like flames coming out!
