Question: Can anyone else do this?

my dad takes habenero peppers amd eats them like candy. as a matter of fact he says one of his favorite snacks is ghost chili peppers (the ones you get in a bag) he also eats those like candy. i tried one once and i couldn't feel my mouth. it was on fire and numb from just one yet he can eat a whole bag and not even be red in his face!

Answers:

Some people's tolerance for taste and heat is very different from others. My father is like yours, and can eat exceptionally hot foods without thinking twice. Funnily enough, my sister is very sensitive to spices and chilis etc, whilst I'm the kind of guy who needs tabasco sauce on everything to be able to taste it.

You might find your father is very sensitive to sour foods, or a different type of taste.

Have him try a fresh ghost chili. I bet he wont eat those like candy!

I guess your dad is used to spicy food.
If you want to eat spicy food I guess you should avoid it touching your tongue.

WAY too hot for me haha

:O I WONDER!!
