The hottest instant Ramen I knew from the times I still ate them, was this:

More hotness is not needed, me thinks. Really. Not more. Please.

Hehe and I who thought it had something to do with some bomb(ing.)

The information in this article was new to me. I've read about it yesterday in a Danish newspaper and I was thinking it's good I do not eat Noddles with chicken tast at all.

I do like very spicy noddles to eat a few times per month.

Just heard about this on the BBC - maybe those Vikings weren't all that

I doubt those Danes would be impressed with a Phal curry then

The Danes are weak when it comes to spicy food.

Hot curry which you can buy in the stores aren't spicy at all. Neither is their hot chili.

I used to eat this stuff at work sometimes. My eyes would water and my nose would run. My co-workers would ask if I was alright and why I was torturing myself. But it was sooo good.

I recently tried to eat one of those, and questioned whether they had made it so hot by accident? Never tasted anything on the US market that hot, tasted more chemical hot than say Thai pepper hot. I like heat, but I was not a fan of this. I tossed it out.

Hottness for a cause! A numb tongue cannot taste the other things they put in it!

Which I personally know all about.

In a restaurant in Holland 2005 I ordered what I thought was a 3 star dinner. These 3 stars meant extra, extra extra hot.

Steam was coming out of my ears and my taste buds was paralyzed. My tongue was as you said numb or paralyzed

Let me guess - you made it worse by trying to extinguish the fire with a cold fresh

, eh...?!
Maybe my Mum put something too hot into my lunchs and dinners when I was a kid, too. Would explain why today I make so many typos.

I drank a lot of Coca Cola Which didn't help and I felt that I had to finish the meal.

Edit
Learned later on that I should have ordered milk instead
End edit

Or cream, fatty cream. Or oil.

I burned my capsaicin sensors out a long time ago.

My wife, on the other hand, is European. In all the years that I lived in her country, I don't remember ever eating anything that was even vaguely, "hot" in the chili pepper sense of the word. The food was great, but not hot.

Shortly after we got married, I offered to make supper one night. I cooked like I usually do, she raved about the smell and couldn't wait to try it. She took one bite, I thought she was having a stroke or something, and when she was finally able to speak again she said, "Oh my goodness! That is the hottest thing that I have ever tasted! I can't believe that you're eating it!" We got take-out.

After we returned to the US to live, I was sitting at the kitchen table reading a magazine and eating pickled Jalapeno peppers from a jar. She walked in and asked what I was eating. "Jalapeno Peppers," I told her. "You probably wouldn't like them."

"I love peppers!" she replied, probably thinking of sweet peppers. "Let me try one!" Her reaction was about what I had expected. I tried to warn her.

But over the years, she has become used to my way of eating. These days, she likes a little burn to her food. You get used to it. But it takes a while. I don't really even notice if a dish is very hot. My tastebuds adapted a long, long time ago.
