My parents think a jalapeno-based sauce will kill you, and they refuse to believe there even exists anything hotter than that.

I'm SEA-n but relatively speaking I'm on the lower end of the ladder heat resistant-wise.

I was so excited when I could finally buy Jalapeno in my country cuz I wanna make Poppers. When I bit a raw one my reaction was "my dude, this is a tomato", my western media fooled me into thinking it's the hottest thing ever.

Then I found out about the Scoville unit and realized the Silling Labuyo we raw-dogging daily is order of magnitude hotter lol. Jalapeno actually tastes great though.

Absolutely. A very nice chili for sweetness.

Last time my parents visited us my mum had some smoked jalapeno sauce because “it looked like we were enjoying it so much”, and afterwards she thought we were trying to kill her.

My dad just said something like “no thank you, I’ve seen people eat those things on the footy show. Stupid.”
