Hasn’t been Caliente in a really long time. Pretty sure they were on Man vs. Food or one of those shows though.

Yup, was man vs food. Also, as of about a year or so ago they had stopped offering them because it typically makes people snot/other fluids which was obviously less than ideal during a pandemic. Might be worth making a quick call before heading there.

My wife and I ordered the wings. Had to sign a waiver. We honestly think the wings had moved out of the “challenge” space into the “physical damage” space. People 3 tables over had watery eyes. Maybe people could complete the challenge, but we didn’t even attempt. To be classified as a challenge there has to be some possibility of success. We just didn’t see it.

Adam Richmond was pissed off too because they use capsaicin extract.

Maybe also bc the owner said (on national tv) he has never changed out the wing sauce, just added to it. Gross.
