Saw these and was like woah neato a new entry in spicy chip game. Problem is I can't even detect spice. Why are the paqi ghost pepper chips the only thing even trying to be mainstream and spicy? They're not as hot now as they were at first either but still you can tell they try.

Come on Americans can handle spice now just do it

nobody makes spicy chips because nobody buys them
nobody buys spicy chips because they're too spicy
people can't get accustomed to spicy chips because nobody makes them

the paqui chips are an exception but I bet they lose a good chunk of money on them even if it is a meme at this point

Many people, especially millennials and zoomers, are uncomfortable going to a normal restaurant. They want what they are used to, which is Taco Bell. They can order with an app so they don't have to (gasp!) talk to a waitress.

places aren't allowed to sell hot shit, they get sued by americans (i'm american)
the hottest thing I can find in a grocery chain is awesome scarred habanero peppers in winn-dixie. publix has that gay waxy weak orange stumpy habaneros and i was surprised when I found those.

anyway, mainstream spicy can't happen. bitches will complain that they got what they ordered, same reason I can't order anything spicy from asian places, they call me round eye. your best bet is hot sauce. try Dave's brand "insanity sauce", it's popular, found it at a vitamin market a couple miles away. the ghost pepper sauce version isn't spicier, it's just thinner so you accidentally use more of it.

obviously not from the south, in new orleans 99% of the shit is fucking nuclear if you want it, hell even all the way up in Natchez they had a thai place that was so god damn fucking spicy i was crying while I was eating and it was the best goddamn thai i have ever had

just go to a hot sauce store retard, or a local wing joint, hell even Buffalo wild wings has some nice heat on their higher level shit

Idk why but their second hottest to hottest is like a quantum leap I can't make. It just seems SO much hotter when I comfortably demolish the 2nd hottest.

I personally used to like the mango habanero or whatever, it was the perfect spice for 10 wings, by the time you were done, you'd have felt like you have had some serious fucking spice, and still some solid wings, but their hottest is aight, not a good spicy flavor

sucks because bdubs was very on and off, sometimes they were great, and sometimes it was straight up bad

>Come on Americans can handle spice now just do it

If you're looking for extra hot food at a fast food place like taco bell you are really really doing it wrong. You need to go to a non chain place for actual hot shit.

Fast food places will often make shit screaming "GHOST PEPPER!" or "Carolina reaper!" when in actuality it is like .001% of the active ingredient, just so people can feel like the heat is cranked up. Major chains and stuff are often afraid to make anything too hot because people are idiots and will rub their eyes with the shit on their hands, or horribly underestimate what they can handle.

Yeah my local b dubs can have atrocious service and wait times for like no fucking reason. It should take all of five minutes to deep fry some traditional wings and sauce em. Sometimes they'll even be slow on my beer and beer refills. If I was their manager or franchise owner I would lose my shit if you weren't pushing beer like a motherfucker. The wings are a loss leader the only way I'm making moneys is on the beer refills because the soda refills are free.

I've eaten at b dubs coast to coast and my local one is the worst by far. Very disappoint because its the only place around that doesn't fuck up the wings by trying too hard or breading them or some other b.s.

Not sure if they still make them, but Blair's had some pretty nutso chips happening for a while.

3am reserve's still my go-to for "I love the flavour, but this chili needs to be hotter," so maybe that company's actually doing something right.

Mexican here, if yall can find some Chiltepinos, you can make a really tasty salsa. However the spiciness from batch to batch can vary wildly. I love them though, they have a very peculiar taste.
