Take a peek at this SPICY STUFF

 HOT FOOD needs COLD BEER!!! 
The only way to eat hot sauce, is on crackers chased with cold beer. This is an excellent site! 

  FACT:  If you eat a pepper you can't handle, milk is the most effective 'coolant' sour cream works well also. Personally, I prefer a cold beer, water is the least effective.

 FACT:  The higher the capsaicin content, the hotter the pepper. The Scoville scale rates "hotness" in the different varieties of peppers. Hotness can vary within a variety, and even among peppers from the same plant.
