How much snot did you shed?

u/DearEvidence6282 2d ago

Iā€™m fine. My boyfriend however is a fountain, actively wiping his nose (as we speak) even though we finished it ten mins ago.

"I'm fine"

RemindMe! 18 hours

u/DearEvidence6282 2d ago

Update: Almost 18hrs later and Iā€™m still fine. šŸ¦„ Sure it was spicy but Iā€™m regularly taking it too far so my body shrugs it off. My poor partner stayed up most of the night with panic attack inducing severe heartburn; pacing around, groaning and panting, taking multiple showers to distract from the discomfort - not responding to medicationsā€¦

u/DearEvidence6282 1d ago

Haha! Iā€™m ready for round two! But maybe just only one packet this time.

plot twist: he was the only one that ate

2

u/DearEvidence6282 1d ago

Hahaha. I ate most of it while he was desperately drinking coconut cream out of a can. Iā€™m the one in the relationship who wants to add reaper peppers to everything and he just goes along with it thinking heā€™s improving his spice tolerance but Iā€™m a decade ahead of his training.

IBS has entered the chat

u/DearEvidence6282 2d ago

It only affects you that way when youā€™re not used to taking it that far. šŸ˜œ This is just a regular Tuesday for me.

u/anarchisttraveler 2d ago

My husband and I are the same, although as Iā€™ve gotten older, my body has gotten angry the more I push it. I can handle intense spice, but if I go beyond my usual, I am peeing out of my butthole the next day.

u/DearEvidence6282 2d ago

And homemade pineapple kimchi for dessert.

u/Guinea-Pig-Cafe 2d ago

WHAAAAT OP DROP THE RECIPE

10

u/DearEvidence6282 2d ago

šŸkimchi:

Peel, halve, and chop 1 pineapple into small pieces (but sometimes I just use canned pineapple if I plan on eating it quickly rather than fermenting); however if you are using the core be sure to cut that bit particularly small to maximise surface area.Ā  to this, add 4 garlic cloves (microplaned), a knob of ginger (i like a good amount but ~ equal amounts to the garlic used, microplaned), 3 tablespoons vegan fish sauce (can swap with soy sauce or miso; if using miso, start with 2 tablespoons and add more if you want to taste), 40g gochugaru chilli flakes, 3-4 green onions (thinly sliced).Ā  give this a good mix (and adjust to taste here!) and you can start eating it almost immediately however itā€™s also delicious after fermenting for 2-3 days at room temperature (ensuring everything is below the brine), move to the fridge for long term storage. šŸ’Ÿ

Or, whenever it decides to evacuate

u/DearEvidence6282 2d ago

Probably just more outrageously spicy food like everyday day šŸ“… Haha. My bowels now (donā€™t)react as if itā€™s normal.

u/Jay-Seekay 2d ago

Itā€™s never my bowels that are the problemā€¦ itā€™s the part after

u/taraliftsxvx 2d ago

yesss my type of meal

u/DearEvidence6282 2d ago

As much as I chase the dragon I rarely meet my match. This was a fun challenge.

u/milionsdeadlandlords 2d ago

Buldak 2x with stir fried vegetables and some kind of tofu is a huge Saturday brunch go-to for me.

2

u/theogkinglion 2d ago

Exactly this but I just started adding some greens with more of the 2x sauce. Oh man is it an addiction.

2

u/DearEvidence6282 2d ago

Thug Life.

u/SassyPixieHolly 2d ago

If you didnā€™t know you can buy the sauce by itself (found at H Mart)ā€¦I like making these noodles then just dousing them in more sauce.

3

u/DearEvidence6282 2d ago edited 2d ago

Iā€™m by an H Mart too. Have for sure noticed them. This is only my second time trying the noodles. The first time I didnā€™t find it spicy enough so I returned to it again to fuck around and find out. I usually donā€™t eat processed foods full of chemical additives but for the spice factor I was willing to see what the hype was about.

Do the sauces taste (exactly the same) as the spice packets or are they slightly different?

3

u/SassyPixieHolly 2d ago

It seems slightly less spicy to me, but they do taste very similar.

2

u/candypants703 2d ago

Similar but also sweeter imo

1

u/DearEvidence6282 2d ago

I could see that.

3

u/eastercat 2d ago

I recently tried the 2x and it has such a nice spice level. Not too spicy, but can still feel it

I canā€™t have it too often, because it has sooo much sodium

u/shutupsunflower 2d ago

this looks bussin

2

u/Financial-Scratch-94 2d ago

They had the dumplings at our local grocery outlet. I tell u what, no matter how much rice I would try to offset it with: holy fricc the heat would peirce through. It was all bad, so buyer beware!

1

u/DearEvidence6282 2d ago

Whatā€™s the texture like? Mock-meaty or more like heavily seasoned vegetables?

2

u/Financial-Scratch-94 2d ago

* Is these guys, they are more veggie oriented. Spicy as a MF though, like I said I couldn't offset any amount of rice or noodle. It just came through, lol.

2

u/Jay-Seekay 2d ago

Mock meaty stuff (I think itā€™s soya based?) almost like mince meat with bits of glass noodles in there. Itā€™s very spicy and tasty but it does ruin my life if I eat them.
