minus-square@SkyeStarfalllink9•10 months agoUh, I mean, you can die at any one time without anything directly causing it. So no, it’s not necessarily common sense. And spicy foods, even very spicy ones, are consumed daily without too much medically bad happening… certainly not more than, say, eating peanuts.
minus-square@Perfide@reddthat.comlinkfedilink5•10 months agoThis chip isn’t merely “very spicy food”, it is explicitly designed to be a challenge. One single chip costs $10 and the packaging is literally shaped like a coffin.
minus-square@SkyeStarfalllink1•10 months agoSure, but people also eat the hottest peppers in existence and are fine… medically speaking. Like, yeah, it probably puts some strain on your body, but by itself I don’t think it should be majorly harmful.
