Welcome to Hellfire!!!

 

This was the setting of our wonderful sushi adventure  (beneath) and what an adventure it was!!! The lovely Rebekah Seastrand and I set out with some much needed moral support from Charlotte Searle, to conquer 2 pieces of level 6, 2 pieces of level 6.5 and 6 pieces of level seven spicy hot hellfire sushi!!!

It started off with some anticipation, and nervousness in the pit of my stomach as we walked in, looked up and saw our prize (a t-shirt bearing the name of the challenge). We were seated and told our nice quiet waitress that we wanted to do the challenge! We had to first overcome 2 pieces of level 6, and honestly, it wasn't too bad for me, but Bekstrand was feeling the heat pretty bad, and then decided to try the "Russian Roulette Roll" while I continued with the challenge. In her roll she got a surprise level 6.5 piece, while I ate two level 6.5 pieces to prepare for level 7.

They were so spicy! I was not expecting it, and Bekstrand, well, she was expecting it even less haha.

Take a close look, and you'll see the top of it is covered with powder, that is pure Thai chili powder!!! And it was like getting into a warm bed on a cold winter's day... at first, then it was like someone lit a fire in the back of my mouth! Insanity, I was told I turned red haha, but it wasn't so bad b/c right as I ate the second one, Bekstrand found her surprise roll and well, lets just say, she isn't as used to spicy food as I am :P

So yeah, it was a good night, I was looking at a waiver to sign before starting the level seven part of the challenge (consisting of 6 spicy rolls!) and decided that the drive back to Provo that night would be much safer if I chose not to continue on. But we are going back to celebrate my birthday in November :D

Get Ex-CITED!
