A new chili sauce developed by Blair Lazar was awarded the hottest sauce in the world. Using a unit system that measures "chili heat", the sauce scored 16 million units while the world's spiciest pepper scored 570,000.
The sauce is 30 times hotter than the spiciest pepper and 8,000 times more fiery than Tabasco. Diners must sign a disclaimer recommending protective gloves and eye wear but even sweating testers in safety gear were blinded by tears for 30 minutes. The sauce is 30 times hotter than the spiciest pepper and 8,000 times more fiery than Tabasco.
Medical experts fear it could kill asthmatics or hospitalise a user who touches a sensitive part of the body afterwards.
Talk about insane!
