Remember to eat ice cream after you eat the pepper. That way — the next day while you’re sittin’ on the toilet — you’ll have something to look forward to…
I’m pretty sure “chowing down on Apocalypse Scorpion Peppers” is somewhere in the Big Book of Really Bad Decisions right behind “Invading Russia” and “changing the formula to Coca Cola”.
When I was 12 years old my friend and I went to the farmer’s market where a guy sold roasted green chiles and other peppers. We asked him how much it would be to buy two habanero to eat raw. He said he would give them to us for free if we ate them in front of him, and this is the story of how when I was 12 years old I ended up crying and throwing up in a dumpster at a farmer’s market.
I have a feeling Amelia will get wind of this envelope containing hot pepper seeds. Then she’ll give Spud an out-of-body experience without warning. :D
If Wallace does succeed in achieving his out of body experience, do you think he’ll meet up with four or five of the disembodied Petey Otterloops? Do you think that Loris Slothrop would be able to see him?
I work retail, including a candy counter, and we recently picked up “the world’s hottest gummy bear.” A couple of weeks ago, a lady was paying for candy for a cluster of 12- or 13-year-old boys, and I warned her to have bread and milk on hand. She called the boy in question: “Did you know this is super spicy?” Answer: “Yeah! I want to see if it’ll make me throw up!”
One of my co-workers convinced another to eat a ghost pepper. The second co-worker missed a meeting because he was on his back in the bathroom wondering if he’d survive. The boss told co-worker #1 not to try to kill his employees, please.

You will Wallace, you will. And believe me, you will not want to get back in that body when it’s done.

Well his tongue will be out of his body. It will be curled up on the floor, burnt black as coal.

And hours after that, as Wallace is sitting on the toilet, Dad will bring out one of his old Johnny Cash albums and play “Ring of Fire” over and over.

I like spicy food, but I am not a masochist. I once made chili and added curry. That was not one of my best decisions.

2nd panel a keeper. And the seagull summed it up succinctly.

The highlight is that they will surprise cross-pollinate with any pepper within eyesight.
