The supremely spicy sauce that coats these wings contains the Trinidad Scorpion Pepper, until recently named the world's hottest pepper (the Carolina Reaper just surpassed it). These wings are served with a fireman's hat and cooling agents like bread and milk. Those brave enough to successfully finish all the wings earn a spot on Jake's Wall of Flame. But to get a taste, you first have to sign your life away.
2. P’haal, Brick Lane Curry, New York City
(Brick Lane Curry House)
This Manhattan Indian restaurant serves scorching hot P'haal curry that's described as more pain and sweat than flavor. The owners ask those willing to take the plunge to "state a verbal disclaimer not holding us liable for any physical or emotional damage after eating the curry." If you do finish your serving, a cold bottle of beer is on them and you get your picture in the P'haal of fame.
3. Habanero Pizza, Flying Pie Pizza, Boise, Id.
(Flying Pie)
The Habanero pizza at Flying Pie Pizza has a variety of heat options, with the hottest coming in the form of an 18-inch pie topped with a sauce made with 18 habanero peppers. The waiver is only for if you want to take the pie out of the building, and reads: While the pizzas are hot and spicy, Flying Pies guarantees that you will return to a safe and normal life after taking on the challenge.
