#No9 Eat a Chilli

So as part of Arthritis Week, I am going to try and complete as many challenges as I can and tonight saw #No9 (challenged by my sister Hayley) to eat a chilli. Now for those of you who know me will know that I suffer with the WEAKEST palate ever! I kid you not, the only curry I can eat is a Korma and I struggle eating Sweet chilli crisps and potato wedges! I inherit this in-tolerance of spicy food from my father so I blame him. I only need to taste something slightly spicy and my mouth goes crazy - it's not pleasant and I don't enjoy it. Therefore eating a chilli was always going to be tough.

So armed with milk and wine (!) I tucked into a green medium chilli from Tesco's and well the video really reveals all! However painful, I did it. My mouth felt like it was on fire, which lasted at least half an hour after the eating. My face went red. I was hot and sweaty and my eyes were watering. It was probably the worst thing I have EVER eaten - given me a witchettygrub any day!!

Anyway enjoy the film - I apologise for some of the choice words used however I had no control over my mouth at all. If you are at all inspired then please follow the tab above to my Just Giving Page and donate for Arthritis Research UK. If you already have - thank you so much - enjoy the pain and the faces I pull!!
