Chilly Sanity

Who did invent chilly sauce or other food with chilly in it? I ate a very spicy hot kway tiaw for diner yesterday and that made me wonder who tasted chilly for the first time.
I mean, if I was the first person who tasted green chilly, my reaction would be something in the line of spitting the chilly out of my mouth, cursing it left and right, jumping into the lake to extinguish the fire in my mouth and then burning the whole chilly farm.

But apparently that's not what happened. That person, whoever he was, who first tasted chilly apparently enjoyed the taste of hot burning coal on his tongue.
That person must be one insane dude. This was a kind of person who was rejected from Fear Factor on the base of being too crazy. This was a kind of person who ate scorpions without any hesitation. Well, I know that there are a lot of people who ate scorpions, but this type of people eat scorpions alive!

So that’s what he did. He tasted chilly and felt burning sensation on his mouth and what he thought was,”This is fun!”, in the same tone that he probably used when he threw his closet out of his bedroom window just to see how loud it would sound.

Unfortunately somehow other people also caught the madness and they started pouring chilly into their food. So as a result, now I need to sweat a lot every time I have diner with my wife, because my wife is also one of the insane people who enjoy chilly very much.
