Not yet, I will have to look for them.  My current favorite flavor is Kettle Chips "Dill and Sour Cream".

Mike, I never would have figured you for one of the waterpipe 'n' Doritos crowd.

I'm shocked.

Waterpipe?

Mike,

Do those Doritos contain any hydrogenated oils?  Just curious.

I normally use a quarter to half a habanero.  I used two the first time and had to throw the chilli out.

When I use fresh peppers, I'll use a handful of jalepenos.

I'm lazy.  I just keep a bottle of the cheap Mexican habanero sauce around and pour it on everything.  You can pour it on plain crackers and have Firey Habanero Crackers.

If I threw diced habanero or a handful of fresh jalapenos in the chili, no one else would eat it.

I like it hot, but not stupid hot. Jalapenos on everything and lots of cayenne when cooking, but cerranos are about as far as I take it. Maybe the occasional Thai red for some extra kick.

I worked up the courage to try a paper-thin hair sliver of habanero once. Once. The flavor is wonderful - almost citrus-like - but the heat is incomprehensibly intense. Intense enough to make this dedicated chilehead have to sit down because the endophine rush was so strong! I was shaking almost uncontrollably, sweating profusely, and my mouth and throat were so irritated I could only talk in a barely-understandable croaking whisper.

Not. Again. Thank. You.

My favorite is bread-n-butter jalapenos. You can buy them already done, or take a jar of bread-n-butter pickle juice (after eating all the pickles on some tasty burgers) and just pile in the sliced jalapenos. If you put them in fresh it may take a couple of weeks for them to completely pickle. If you use already pickled jalapenos they will sweeten and be ready to eat pretty much overnight.

Believe this or not, but me old man used to eat habanero peppers out of the jar while sitting around watching tv.  Dad and mom spent winters along the Mezican border in Texas, in The Valley.  He loved to bring home a box of jars of habeneros.
When he got to be about 85 his doc told him he needed to stop eating 'em and stop sippin' on brandy and eatin' fried chicken.  He was crushed.  I told him, what the hell dad, you're 85, why don't you just fire your doctor and do as you please.  He did.  He lived till he was 93 and 3 months.

I don't eat habaneros by themselves but my chili gets 3 at a time.  Yum, yum.

I use Habeneros in my green chili and in the bean dip I make for gaming days.  One or two finely diced, along with some Jalapanios, lemon pulp, chipolte olive oil and fresh cilantro, a good dollop of The Wrath salsa  , NaCl to taste.  Nice and fiery, but not overwhelming.

I've tried the Doritos noted above.  Not bad, but not really that intense of a burn.  The hotest stuff I EVER tasted was this off beat hot sauce called "Hot Pot" made with Hemp seed oil.  I put just a few drops on my veggies one camping trip and WOW!

Can't find it anymore...*sniff* Sad

A dollop of sour cream can save a dish like that.

If the Black Pepper Jack chips are any indication, no, there's no trans fat.

As for peppers, if you want to reduce the heat in a pepper markedly and keep the fruitiness, split the pepper open so that you can lay it flat and cut the ribs off the inside so that you're left with a flat piece of outer shell. The ribs contain most of the heat in the edible portion of the pepper.

Just be careful what you touch- my brother had to "see a man about a horse" while cutting up Habaneros, and thought his junk was going to fall off after he touched it without washing his hands...

On a related topic, I once ate a few jalapenos from a jar. Then tried to take out my contact lenses... shocked

Took three or four alternating acid/alkaline handwashings before I could get the things out.

One great advantage of glasses. cool

We grew two habanero plants summer before last.

Put up beaucoup pints of salsa and diced/froze a lot more.

You gotta wear gloves and observe biohazard procedures when handling them though.

I'm pretty sure you can use habenero in lieu of paint stripper, but it sure makes the salsa interesting!

I'm pleased to see that I'm not the only one who has had that sort of experience.

I chopped up some jalapenos for beans on Sat.  Washed my hands several times over the following 24 hours.  Sunday, get ready for a date and go to put my contacts in.   Instant fire eye!
