Not sure what's causing the digestive reaction tho, as technically the capsaicin isn't burning anything, it's just a false signal from your nerves
I really wonder if there are actual risks, other than the ones caused by ingesting such large amount of food
My main guess is just ingesting a lot of some weird molecule and we have no way to process it really. Headline would kinda be the same with 135 Oreos in one sitting if the heat didn’t matter.
