I’ve never understood why anyone would eat anything that is so hot that it overwhelms the taste of the food!A coworker told me about the dishes his wife would make that would were so spicy that they basically burned him from his mouth to his exit!

Chyna stainless steel?

Good point, Tank. Even the strongest stomachs couldn’t handle something as hot and spicy as that.

You may need to alter the recipe a bit there!

Forget about the pot! What about the stove!

Rub it on Barkley’s hamstring and hope for a miracle

Cleveland—Pittsburgh football game—to quote a famous 1945 world Series—-“I don’t either team is capable of winning”

Now it will melt its way to the center of the Earth.

I am NOT cleaning that stove.

The chemical involved is basically an anti-mammal poison. It doesn’t affect anything but mammals. Birds, for instance, are unaffected by peppers. Metal pots certainly are not.

I think the point here is that bird digestive systems do not digest pepper seeds, but mammalian digestive systems do. Thus, a toxin to discourage mammals.

The strangest part of it all is that humans like to eat peppers at all.

Sounds like he needed a cast iron pot.
