Is it just me or are hot sauces actually not that hot or am I doing something wrong?
I've tasted a 500 thousand scoville sauce on top of a grill steak and I felt a slight heat inside my mouth and my nose was running, but there was never a point where my face would go red, where I'd feel intense pain or start sweating, I don't even get a feeling of having to drink something cool
Am I resistant to hot things or is the hotness just a state of mind?
