I don't think they use real ghost pepper for their sandwich and wings, because it's only mildly hot to me, but I guess some people might consider it too hot, it just depends on the person.

It's like when you order wings at most places and they offer you choices of how hot you want it and their options are mild, hot, some really hot unholy level of pepoer that they claim you're going to regret, so you order the hottest option and then you're disappointed.

I love spicy food, the hotter the better, and I can usually handle the hottest thing you can throw at me, I've tried every hot sauce you can imagine and while most of them are, in my opinion, falsely advertised as hot when a kid could handle it, there are a few that definitely live up to their name and actually do cause physical discomfort after you have had them.

I've had real ghost peppers, and it was pretty intense, there is a brand of tortilla chips called Paqui that has a ghost pepper flavor, and good Lord those are hot. I tried them once before and I couldn't finish the bag, I don't know if it's because the pepper is powder instead of a hot sauce, but it was just too hot to eat the whole bag. My family were sitting there laughing at me because it's the first time they have ever seen me complain about something being too hot.

If anyone here actually wants to try them after what I just said, then they are pictured below... I look forward to your review.

Jalapeños are way too hot for me, and they are routinely included in almost everything spicy now. Anaheims and Poblanos are as far as I'll go, and that's only because my husband insists on them. I was way past grown before I'd touch black pepper, although I've made friends with it now.

I noticed that Andy hasn't been here in awhile, it looks like he went AWOL on us, but this time it means ... Andy Went Out to Lunch, and I think that I know where he went...

Apparently on July 31, for one day only in Norwalk, California they turned a Wendy’s into a Wednesday's and they were offering their new Meals of Misfortune menu.

The Meals of Misfortune menu includes the following. -

“Rest in 10-Piece” Nuggets

“Cursed & Crispy” Fries

“Raven’s Blood” Frosty - a dark cherry swirl served in Wednesday-themed cups and paired with the legendary Spoon of Gloom.

“Dips of Dread” – four inferno-inspired mystery sauces - You Can’t Hyde, This Will Sting, Grave Mistake, and Nowhere to Woe.

Starting on August 4 The Meal of Misfortune menu will be available at Wendy’s locations nationwide ... it looks like I'll be going to Wendy’s this week. :lol:

My goodness! We have a Wendy's in this neighborhood, and I'd heard nothing about this! Such a fun thing to do!

Coincidentally I just finished binging the second season, 4 episode premier of 'Wednesday " on Netflix.

It was enjoyable, with expanded cast and story lines.

We didn't watch it yet because we are just going to wait until the second part of the season comes out in 2 months and watch the total 8 episodes then. So I didn't even tell my kids the new season started.

Can you believe that we live in a world now where a whole season of a show only has 8 lousy episodes in it, and those lazy bastards actually divide the small season and make you wait for it? That sucks.

As if I needed another reason to eat more Reese's peanut butter cups, I just found out that they are releasing them in different varieties with Peanuts Great Pumpkin packaging this year... looks like I'll be hunting for them now. :lol:

British TV shows are typically 8-10 episode seasons, and that's okay as long as it's quality over quantity.

Oh my god...going to have to hunt down those Peanuts butter cups.

I haven't heard of this product before, it's called TruMoo and they have a new Hocus Pocus orange cream milk available for Halloween.

They also have some recipes on their website in the link below.

I was at Wal-mart today and I found these Stranger Things Chips Ahoy cookies, they are a chocolate cookie with fudge chips and strawberry filling, and they actually taste pretty good, I mean, for a store bought cookie. :lol:

Those do look good. I was in Walmart yesterday, not looking for cookies. But I did FINALLY see a few pumpkins. Not many, and not the carving type, but a few highly decorative ones, as well as some pie pumpkins.
