I have eaten a stupendously hot spicy dhal. Will I survive?

[AbsentmindedWoman]

It was so good but SO HOT I love spicy food but I clumsily let half the jar of cayenne pepper fall into the pot, and didn't think it would be too bad.

It was very hot indeed. My mouth is still on fire.

I'm gonna make it right?

God help anybody who gets in between you and the toilet...

Pop some flushable wet wipes in the fridge. Good luck!

Your bum might cry

You will have the ring of fire tomorrow

Ha! There is only me no worries on that front.

Drink milk

Do you share a bathroom? You might need to book some time in there alone

Is this really a thing? Burning at The Other End?

Do you have a late night pharmacy or supermarket nearby?

Get a tube of germoliods for the inevitable pain tomorrow or you will be walking like John Wayne

I do this to myself far too often with my favourite delicious but very spicy pizza

You’ll be fine, but if you wake up in the night and your bowel is telling you it needs to evacuate, listen to that voice.

Ha cross post.

My friend did this once (not exactly this but ate something way too spicy) and she ended up popping a carrot in the freezer and....well...use your imagination

Ring sting

Just remember it’s always twice as hot coming out!😂

Burning at the other end. Is it a thing?
Oh yes indeed.

Fucking hell, this thread isn't exactly reassuring

My vague concern when I posted was could it irritate my stomach and give me an ulcer or something.

I have kefir. Would that be a soothing drink?

I was going to say that your core will get hotter and hotter until you spontaneously combust but it sounds like you'll be reaching for frozen carrots long before that!
Maybe you should be ordering a new toilet and booking the plumber to install it...

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PASS WIND UNLESS ON THE LOO. UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.

It's more likely to irritate your gut than your stomach tbh. It wont give you an ulcer but could irritate one you already have. Tbh the worst that may happen is a couple of unpleasant hours on and off the loo.

One time I ate an entire jar of peppers. My bumhole cried the next day. And my eyes.

Not sure cayenne will produce the same effect tbh, but just in case, save the kefir for your bumhole.

@BarbarianMum thank you. That's quite reassuring

Drink cold milk!

Eating yoghurt's your saviour here, though I admit I've never tried the "frozen carrot method"

... but only because I hadn't thought of it

I want a spicy dahl now. Just have a spoonful or three of plain yoghurt if you have some, milk if not. That will take away any burning.

I've been eating fairly hot curries for the best part of 3 decades and I've never experienced anything like the 'jokes' refer to! I honestly don't really understand it - maybe some people are affected adversely, but obviously not everyone is!
