I have a pretty significant spice tolerance and did the OCC earlier this year. It was an uncomfortable mouth experience but the first 10 minutes immediately after were fine. The two hours after that of stomach pain followed by 10 minutes of projectile vomiting makes it completely irresponsible to recommend. It's a chemical irritant, not a spicy sensation

I did the one chip challenge the second year they released it. I'm sure they've made it spicier since then. My mouthfeel was fine (I've eaten raw Carolina Reapers before, so my datum is a bit skewed compared to the typical person). However, I stupidly ate it on an empty stomach and I had terrible cramps for the rest of the day. Do not recommend.

Paqui, the company that makes it, has a normal spicy chip called Haunted Ghost Pepper. I use those to make microwave nachos.
