    Due to the excessive and intense heat of these chile peppers, consumption and handling should be approached with extreme caution!
    Consumption will likely induce a fierce burning pain for 20 minutes or more that causes sweating, tearing, bulging eyes, hiccups, coughing, blisters inside mouth and throat, vomiting & numbness of the tongue that lasts for days!
