One time....my mom found this "cute" Habanero pepper plant and decided to get one to put in the garden. We didn't know anything about these hot peppers and we ended up with LOTS of them. My cocky little brother, who at the time thought I was a pansy of a girl, came in with one of the first Habaneros and said, "I bet you won't pop this in your mouth and eat it!" I decided to take him down a peg and do something that he was afraid to do himself. (We were like 11 and 16 at the time...) We decided that if I would eat it, he would buy me a jar of peanut butter, (I was on a PB craze at the time I guess.)
I did it. I chewed it up. I swallowed it. I ate some bread. I sucked on ice for the next several hours. I laughed at myself with everyone that heard about it (and ended up with 2 more jars of PB as a joke from a couple of different friends.) I also looked up Habanero peppers online and found out that they are by far the hottest peppers in the world. I believe it. :P
That's impressive. Makes me think of a youtube video of a woman who didn't do so well with that. She's talking about eating healthy, substituting fruits instead of candy, and eats a habanero thinking it was a cherry.

So I went to the store and I just want you to know that just like candy, you can have different types of fruits.
This is just, like, mango slices. okay? And then you could have, like, I got some blueberries. They're good, yum yum yum yum yum. (eats blueblerries)
And then, oops. oh man. I dropped my cherries. (eats cherries) All right, there's cherries, got your bananas, and, uh, I forgot what kind of cherry this is. (holding a habanero) But isn't it cute? Ok, so you have all kinds of different type of, and, they're all good for you, so make sure you try some sometime! (eats habanero) Ok. Ok, this is probably a pepper. Peppers are- (can't speak - spends the rest of the video saying it's hot and asking for water etc. She's in too much pain, I couldn't watch the whole thing.)
