After having the unfortunate experience of biting into a chili masquerading as basil in my Ka-Pow Chicken, and suffering through the following 5 minutes while I proceeded do drink at least a gallon and a half of water (I'm going to be up all night), a question came to me:
What is it about chili's that provide the burning sensation?
Is it an acid? microscopic particles (like poison ivy)? chemical agent? nerve agent?
Anybody know?
