Anyone here ever had one? Supposedly the hottest pepper in the world (1-2 times more than a ghost pepper) and there's a place here that's making chicken wings with sauce made from Reapers. Curious how bad it really is. I know you have to sign a waver before ordering, so I'm sure it's not for the faint of heart

From article:
With a Scoville rating this high, it could cause a seriously upset stomach and make an alarming exit from your body.

So no different than when eating Taco Bell! No problem!

I've had a reaper and it's not for the faint of heart. It's beyond painful. If you try it, have a gallon of milk in your hand, lots of towels and prepare to be miserable for at least a couple of hours or more.
