This is why you're fat
Stumbling around websites on a lazy Sunday, I found this pearl:
The Sandwich of Knowledge
The bottom tier contains eight strips of bacon, six sausages and four burger paddies; followed by a second tier of black pudding; topped by a third tier comprised of two diced chicken breasts and six fried eggs.

Habanero
Last weekend I had the opportunity to try what is considered one of the most spicy chili's on the face of earth. The famous Habanero. It happened during the party of a friend who had the chance to know forehand that he finally approved all his university courses and he will finally graduate eventually as an adult educator. This event was perfect excuse to gather at his place and mix tequila with beers and wine and vodka. Being there a couple of Finnish guys invited me to try a chili. I didn't have problems to recognize the specific one because coincidentally I happened to get curious, some days earlier, over a video I saw on Internet of a guy eating a freaking Habanero and describing the experience in the meanwhile, among another related videos of teenagers making competitions about eating the chili. So, it was a fearsome moment, but it was a challenge I had to take, and very soon regret.Despite it name means "From the Habana (Cuba)" they can come from different places and countries as Mexico, Belize, Panama, Costa Rica, and some U.S. states. It scores from 100,000 to 350,000 heat units. Heat units are actually determined by how many parts of sugar water it takes to dilute a sample so that the heat of a chili can no longer be detected. The chili sample is provided in the form of an extract. The more sugar, the higher the spice, the greater measurement in Scoville units.
As my nature of a non believer, I asked the guys to eat it first. The guys happened to eat it and chew it very well, to later make grin faces and go along the painful process for about 5 minutes and right after that, they had a beer and kept the party going on. It was my turn. To the hell with it, I have to find out what eating a Habanero is. I mean, I've lost my fear for spices in Turkey. This couldn't be so bad. Oh boy, I was so wrong.
I put the chili in my mouth and started chewing it for about 10 seconds. Briefly after that, I could feel the rush of pain going from the back of my throat to my ears. I started sweating and some tears came out of my eyes. I opened my mouth but the air wasn't helping. It was real pain! The time stopped and seconds were passing really slowly. Again my ears and the back side of my head were hurting. The pain was going just to return stronger. It took me 10 long minutes to go along with it. I had to drink some yogurt afterwards to help out the spicy sensation. But the worst wasn't really there yet.
When I was new to Turkey my friend told me a very wise phrase "Bad thing about spices, my friend, is that they burn coming in... and going out. You should always remember that." Hell I did remember.
