I am eating orange chicken and got it non spicey but I bit into some plant thingie (some sort of pepper) THAT WAS HOT AS HELL and it's still burning. Is there anything that can neutralize the burning sensation?

Water does not neutralize spice. it just dilutes distributes the flavor over the entire mouth.

Fat from dairy.  Cream, whole milk, sour cream.

Skim milk is useless.  Don't drink alcohol, it doesn't dilute the hottitude, it just moves it around to more sensitories in your food-hole.

Chocolate works best.

Thanks! I ate a couple of spoonfuls of chocolate ice cream and that helped a LOT! That was about the hottest thing I've ever eaten. I don't know wtf it was, but I've eaten some very hot things before and this was red hot run to the bathroom sink for water hot.

Milk.

I only drink skim and it works great.  Maybe the fatboy milk works better, I dunno.

I was cutting some really hot peppers (some Asian Thai pepper or something. I can't remember right now) for some Fajitas and got the pepper's oil on my fingers. Well, after dinner, I "stuck my fingers in the pie for some dessert". My wife did not enjoy that too much at all. Sh said it burned just a bit.

Lesson learned: Don't put your fingers in pie if you have hot pepper oils on them.

Oh yeah. Milk will help nuetralize the burning of a hot food.

I'm eating in the dark watching Battlestar Galactica season 2 on DVD. WTF was that thing? I looked in the cup I spit it out in that I had next to my bed and it's red.

A BEER. Really it works. The only time that I drink a beer while I'm eating is when I am eating somehting hot n spicy like chicken wings.

Maybe I'm wrong about it being the milk fat, but I've noticed anything with milk fats (except butter for some reason) does the best job for me.

I just don't think skim has the accuracy necessary to neutralize it, even if you put a scope and tactical light on it.  

Anyone know what caliber is best for neutralizing hot foods?

I may be wrong, but an old wise man once told me the burn from peppers and such is from them being a base. The milk's lactic acid helps to nuetrilize the base and stop the burn.

Some one please correct me if I'm wrong.

Don't drink anything cold.  As the oils released when you bite the pepper are what makes your tongue burn, anything cold will make them start to congeal and stick to your tongue/mouth.

Grab a large table spoon, put it in your mouth and put your tongue on it.

Milk, with butter milk being the best.

Bread helps.

Never tried chocolate.

Yeah, what he said.


For this sort of thing you need dairy. The higher the milkfat content the better. Buttermilk works great.
