i have eaten real Habañero peppers (minus seeds )right off the vine...
i have eaten pickled Phillipino peppers that looked just like Jalapeño peppers so hot they burn your cheeks on the outside too...
i've even eaten those tiny red thai peppers with the seeds still in 'em, but NONE of those were as hot as the Kim Chee my neighbors at the UCR made at home...

There is a Japanese Sushi Nazi in Kailua Kona.. He tells you what you will order, and then sets the price according to your attitude..
One time during the Iron man contest we were in there and a large group of young folks were dinning and drinking, they were obviously from Jersy and NYC..
I took a big bite of what I thought was avacado dip only to find out it was the hottest mustard God put on this earth..
My wife and daughter were in stitches as I was cutting up about the whole situation, when the Sushi Nazi runs up and exclaims, Ooo you very very noisy, you mussa sstop.
About that time, a lovely black haired, bronze, blue eyed, very attractive young women stands up, Saki glass in hand, and exclaims in a perfect NYC accent, quote: " SUSHI NAZI " the entire Resturant broke out in laughter and applause. One of the funnest spontanious things I have ever seen in a resturant.
BTW, The food was terrible! but I think people go there just so they can say "They have been there".

i bet that was wassabbi- good sinus medicine
Wasabi is a condiment traditionally served with raw fish (sushi and sashimi) and noodle (soba) dishes in Japan. The ground root-like rhizome pungently flavors many foods in Japanese cuisine and its bright green color adds color contrast, for which Japanese dishes are famous. In the last twenty years, because of low supply of fresh Wasabi rhizomes, substitutes made of mixtures of horseradish, mustard and food coloring have taken the place of freshly prepared Wasabi. Other parts of the Wasabi plant are also used. The leaves and petioles are picked or can be powdered for use as Wasabi flavoring, used now in many foods.

Our friends know better than to ever invite the 3 of us to a classy resturant..
My daughter had a group of us asked to leave this fancy resturant in Portland.. The waiter was gay and she started posing in these seductive gestures towards him, the waiter couldn't deal with her, and ran off to get the "Matra D" or what ever they are called, he was gay too, and asked us to leave..Said my daughter was to distracting!!!

So far as I could tell, the market was a monster today, Dust....
I ain't about to get out in this damnyankee weather to go to an open flame steak house, Glass.., but I do have a supply of fine sour mash to settle my nerves after the terrible market day.
Yup, I've eaten all manner of hot pepper and have to agree......prepared hot mustard will peel well bonded epoxy paint off the bottom of a boat.
