Apparently a study found that jalapenos actually causes cells that are cancerous in the prostate to kill themselves.

Oddly enough an older gentleman seated in front of us at the hockey game was talking about this over nachos. Small world huh?

My grandfather told me when I was a kid that eating jalepenos would make my penis huge and hair grow on my chest. It didn't work. But I have a huge tolerance for spicy food now.

You know they are re-opening the one on Brainerd Road in Chattanooga.

Until then the Nearest one to you is on Broad St. in Chattanooga.

If you need to get in a fix I can bring you up some of their cajun rice one week...

I had seen a small bit on this subject about a week ago. However, what was said in the segment I had seen was that you would have to eat about 10 habeneros in a day to recieve enough capsaicin for it to properly work....

snort the juices, or spew vodka out your nose. either one hurts like a mofo, but damn, you'll be able to smell something rotten before it ever lands in denmark... (in the case of the former, most likely after the blisters heal. :mrgreen:
