Nonetheless, I paid the price later. The peppers got to my guts within 15 minutes. I hit back some milk and peanuts to see if it would absorb the acids in my stomach. It was a temporary fix.

Green ones are still spicy, but red ones are like novacaine and fire. I had some today with pumpkin leaves and pork skin. Man, o, man did I underestimate them. Usually, my mom cooks it with the small peppers, but it seems this season the peppers have grown really big, more ripe. My lips are numb, but it wears off faster when the peppers are cooked.
