It was miserable for maybe 10 minutes and uncomfortable for probably 30. I tried to drink everything available and milk was for sure the thing that gave the most relief. I don’t recall any Ill effects beyond just extreme mouth burn. Like my stomach was fine and I didn’t have bad shits afterwards
I did it on an empty stomach, which was a mistake. I was in pain for 20 min then threw it up. Had some good endorphin rushes, but would definitely eat before. I regularly get ghost pepper salsa and hot sauce, but the reaper was next level of heat. Added one to a pot of soup and it was really good, don't recommend eating it raw.
Don't do that, I've eaten one and it was a yuge mistake.
Gotta celebrate CA going RED in style.
What was it like? Did you have to go to the hospital?!
I have one someone gave me a few weeks ago.

If it's dried it's not as bad as the fresh thing. Same goes for all peppers. Dried ghost peppers are edible, the ones I grew were not.
