I never enjoyed that scene. In our family, it's kind of a macho tradition that men must eat raw hot chilis. And raw garlic together with rye bread that has been spread with either duck fat or goose fat. No thanks.
My cousin likes to slice these little small hot green chilis into any soup that's put in front of him. I tried it once, but was turned off. I do like hot food, and tend to put cayenne into many soups. But the raw stuff is a real turn off.
I once had raw jalepeno peppers put onto my sub at subway. That was the first and last time. Jalepenos are not the hottest, but the raw flavour turns me off.

I've never eaten them raw, but I've been a fan of hot peppers for a
long time. Evidently the hottness (capsaiconoids) stimulate the same
pain receptors as actual burns but without actually doing any tissue
damage. And as a response to this perceived pain, the body
produces/releases endorphins, which are like the body's endogenous
"morphine". Whuich explain why and how hot peppersd are somewhat
addictive.

I like raw jalapeños and raw Tabasco peppers, and a few others. The
Tabascos are too hot for me to eat by themselves but are good with a
sandwich.

This reminds me, it's March now; time to start some pepper seeds...

From what I've heard, the way to win a "burn out" is to swallow them
whole.

Pico de gallo is usually quite mild, mainly because jalepeños are
rarely hot. There are only enough peppers in these recipes for
Ophelia to taste. The rest of us would wonder where they are.

It gets hot enough for your peppers to develop heat? My brother moved
from San Diego near the desert to Oregon near the coast and figured
out after a couple of seasons that he would not be growing hot peppers
anymore.

I started my first batch about a month ago. I will pot them up into 3
inch fiber pots this weekend. The second batch of seeds is just
germinating the weekend. I'm still working with the Hatch seeds that
were sent to me Christmas 2011. I used a lot of those chilies this
winter.

I like finely shredded raw habaneros. Maybe 1/3 to 1/2 a hab to a plate. Wonderful flavour, but since habs are quite hot, don't use too much. Jalapenos are, IMO, best cooked. Sometimes use banana chillies (very, very mild) as a raw ingredient, and will use capsicums raw in salads. Use pickled chillies more often as a condiment (typically sambal oelek).

Always fun to watch Koreans grab hot chillies and dip them in chilli paste. Could give them a rude shock by slipping a tabasco or two in there.

You're comparing me whiff Julie? My boiled ground beef is better than your rib eye steak. And if you ever decide to **** whiff me agin, I'll rip the snot out of your gonads. That's no chit.

I have shredded habaneros, typically if I'm sharing. Mostly I just take
bites starting at the end. It's fairly safe at the end, and work up,
watching for the placenta. Most of the store bought ones are not that hot
to begin with. The poor ones are sour. The good ones have that wonderful
taste and smell before the heat kicks in. I never have cooked with them,
but have dried the whole pepper, seeds and all.

Lots of them do. The Huy Fong Sambal Oeloek, IIRC, has vinegar. It a good value for quality brand here; some of the Dutch brands might be better, but cost more.

If not vinegar pickled, then salt pickled.
