    My point is peppers are used in pepper spray. Respirator because you may be especially sensitive. People actually die from reaction to capsaicin.

      Oh, I’ve understood that for ages. Back when India was trading the record for hottest pepper, you’d find dozens of videos of folks eating them. Some died from aspiration. Others from swelling in the gut. I take it seriously.
