How much scovilles can you handle?

[Aiko_E_Lara]

In my case, Tobasco has 3,750 scovilles but I tend to mix it with soy sauce cutting it in half making it like 1875 scovilles then i dip something with it like a chicken cutting more scovilles making it like 937.5 scovilles which is my ideal scoville units or maybe like 2000 scovilles is my ideal heat. Currently I'm eating a Samyang Noodles which have 2,600 scoville units. I'm doing just fine with it althought it hurts a little, I can just compare it's heat to an average Tom Yum soup, Curry and Salsa which are food I'm fond of which sometimes is hotter or less than the one I'm having now. I think I can go for like 2800 scovilles maximum but I can't last long with it. Sure I can handle that kind of heat but it isn't isn't ideal. I just want a nice kick to my food.

Not sure. But the last time i had something really spicy was when my girlfriend put some dried chili flakes we've grown on our own on my food. It was so spicy i had to add some cheese to counter the spicyness. Another time same deal with Harissa sauce. And i am someone who usually likes spicy food, but my girlfriend can't handle. it so she just adds a huge spoonfull of that stuff.

Don't know.. I'm not a fan of spicy substances.. I also don't like the way it taste in my mouth.. I can't handle much without coughing up a little bit and needed some water.. LOL..

I don't really measure the heat other than a general description. As much as I like a bit kick I find too much heat just over rides the flavours.

[Aiko_E_Lara]

If the flavor is supposed to be peppery, like peppery in aroma, I wouldn't mind it being too hot.

i'm too much of a wimp to find out lol

Relatively few. And I'd prefer still fewer. Adding flavor is one thing, but eventually it reaches a point where you're LOSING flavor because your brain is totally focused on the chemical burn.

I can't handle any spicy food. Coarse black pepper is too spicy for me 🥵

[NathanDavis]

just an habanero took some part of my soul away, lol...

[Pterodon]

I love hot peppers and can handle some that are quite hot

Fiancé drinks Tabasco like it's fruit punch. I make her hot sauce from habaneros,

Is there a listing for Doritos scoville numbers?

Maybe. You can Google it
