Think I can pick up some in Singapore or Thailand?

They're more common to Malaysia and Singapore. I find that Malays tend to make very spicy stuff. But Thailand has its own flavors too, like tom yam soup, and... uh... tom yam soup? I dunno...

If you're coming to Asia and swing by Korea, kimchi is also worth a try, although fermented vegetables might turn you off. I can safely say that the instant kimchi ramen tastes very, very good, though.

Yeah. I managed to get a hold of some, and it's not bad.

The most spiciness i can take is wasabe on sushi. A chinese resturant down the street makes this suace that my dad says should be illigal. And he loves peppers! He eats them striaght from the jar, except as soon as he eats his suacy egg roll he moves him to just the brink of tears.

FuN FaCt!
Peppers are hot becuase they contian a chemical called "capsaicin", which stimulate the nerve ending in your mouth causing you brain to think you are expieriencing true heat.
to counteract the pain, your brain releases a morphine like endorphins that create a mild EUPHORIA, similar to a runner's high. becuase of this, peppers can become slightly addictive.
DiD YoU KnOw ThAt! Pure capsaicin is so hot, that even if you dilute one drop of it into 100,000 drops, it's still enough to blister your tounge! WOW!

Ican't handle pepers very well. Just last week I bit into a jalapeneo slice and ran around crying like a little girl until I found some milk to wash it away with. But my brother can eat spicy stuff like it is nothing.

FuN FaCt! Eating small amounts of hot peppers over a long time, or eating many at a time can desensitise your feeling of pain.... but hey they're 3.5 times more rich in Vitimin C than oranges.

Did You know that! When you mouth is burning from peppers, drinking milk or water ha the same effect as trying to put out an oil fire with water! A more effective method is too eat yogurt or sour cream, becuase the caseins in them break down the bond between the capsaicin and your mouth. The most effective way though is to moisten a spoonfull of suger and swish it around for a minute or so.

last fun fact i swear!
Capsiacin is an anticoagulant. That means if you eat a lot of them, it will reduce your risk of heart disease. But the downside to this is that if you get a gash on you, it increases your chances of bleeding to death! Becuase it takes a much longer time for the cells to dry up and scab!

I usually find milk helps. I always figured it was because the fat in it diluted the capsaicine, which the water couldn't do. Sugar's new to me though. I'll have to try that sometime. Eating some dry bread or something similar can help, too.

Yeah, I'm with Meister. Milk has always been my first choice in the war against burning mouth.

I'm in rather the same boat as GrrBear. I generally prefer mild or medium salsa. You know, it has enough to let you know it's there, but not enough to make you spit fire.

My sister on the other hand...oy. You ask her, if it doesn't make you spit fire, it was nowhere near hot enough.

Well, milk indeed helps, but i think it only numbs it until i wears off

I believe the reason for milk and bread "cooling" down hot foods is that it will neutralize the acids in the peppers. But that's from my sketchy memory.
