    If you’re chopping hot peppers, always, always wash your hands before peeing. I certainly learned my lesson.

      I’ve never found this to be a problem. I’ve also never experienced poop burn after eating spicy things but instead got it from misc other food that upset my stomach.

            I hit my threshold when I was in my late 40s. Just can’t do what my friend refers to as “stunt peppers” anymore.

          I’ve eaten ghost peppers, hard candies made from extracts made from California reapers, and this crazy octopus sauce my sister once got at an Asian market where a single drop in a pot of rice bordered on painful for me… And one time I accidentally put in a splash

          None of that bothers me on the way out - capsaicin just doesn’t bother me at all once it hits me stomach. But other things do… Grapefruit for instance

      Sometimes it still burns even if you washed your hands. Source: I was eating momos a few days back and the sauce was extra spicy. And I rubbed my eyes after washing hands.

        Mmm momos 🤤 It can still definitely linger even after washing if it’s spicy enough.
