It’s also worth mentioning that 17 million scovilles (17,000,000 SHU) is way off the top of the chart by an order of magnitude: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scoville_scale
Gag or not, this may not be for human consumption.
It’s pretty impressive since pure capsaicin tops out at 16 million, guess they started putting crazier spice moulecules in. Also makes Boimler’s pain in that episode less of a gag and more of a “how are you legally allowed to have this on your table?”
Love this episode. James Cromwell returning as Zefram Cochrane was brilliant.
I literally just rewatched this episode not two hours ago.
Boims in the back, absolutely dying from a tiny amount, and mariner over here pouring out half the bottle.
My wife said she would be boimler, because she’s super vanilla about spicy things. Vanilla might be too spicy for boimler though.
