It also kills wasps. In my meaner days when a wasp once flew into my orange juice, I put about a quarter teaspoon of tabasco sauce on it. It died within a few minutes.

I read that either on CNN or BBC News and one "side effect" of it is that it also might cause stomach cancer.

Stomach cancer vs. prostate cancer?



I've heard that the Japanese have more stomach cancer than any other race and my guess is that it's from some of their spicy foods including wasabi.

Ulcers and cancer are unfortunately high for people in Thailand. But at least their food tastes awesome.

Now to see if a Capsaicin study in humans proves to be effective. I hope that Capsaicin can be put in a pill form. I don't really like hot peppers.

Yeah. It inspired a new bottled liquor.

EUG!

It's a drink reminiscent of Gusano Rojo Mezcal but instead of the worm it has a wasp! Nasty!
And EUG! drinkers like it with OJ and tabasco. Mixed together with a blue ice it's called a EUG WANKER!

And as we all know there's no better pick up ritual at a bar than a guy hearing a gal ask for a EUG WANKER and his replying, 'roight ere, darlin!"

And that's how EUG WANKER came by his moniker. Roight?

Hot peppers are great, it's the ass-burning I can do without afterwards.

I'm a bird. I am the 1% (of pets).

This is great which prove that alternative medecine work as well, better than traditional medecine without those nasty side effects, like chemeotherapy that destroys everything in your body, operations for prostate cancer that causes impotence.

It is like the ketogenic therapy against epilepsy. It is proven to cure epilepsy in lots of cases, even if it takes lots of time. It beat having some of your brain taken out.

But, doctors hate that a patient will take its own health in charge and find other very effective cures against his or her disease.

For some reason when I saw the title of this thread I thought of The Red Hot Chili Peppers.
