My memory is a little hazy on this one, but it is important as it still comes up to this day in conversations with my little sisters in particular.
I know I was an adult when this happened. We went to a Quiznos together for lunch. Quiznos is a fast food sub sandwich place like Subway or Jimmy Johns. That particular time, I put a lot of hot peppers on mine. Every different kind they had. Spicy food never seems to bother me.
The thing about Jalapeno peppers is that they have an exponential growth of pain depending on how many you put on. I thought they plateaued at the level I had been accustomed to. This’ll be cake. As the story goes, I could not stop crying and my eyes allegedly rolled into the back of my head. Snot everywhere. Couldn’t drink enough pop. I did get back to normal, and it didn’t stop me from eating spicy food. I never went back there again, and it’s not even their fault. Uness, they were behind that location closing.
