The slow build-up in that noodle challenge had me pacing for ages

I did a spicy noodle bowl challenge where you had to eat it all in one go. The heat took its sweet time to really hit, like a full five minutes after I finished. I just sat there waiting, feeling nothing at first, then my whole mouth went up in flames. It was crazy how long I had to wait for the full effect to show up.

For that delayed burn, I chug milk the second my mouth starts tingling.

I see your point about chugging milk right away. I usually wait a bit after the tingling starts. Letting the burn build for a minute then sipping milk coats my throat better. It deals with the full heat so it doesn't sneak back up.

Last night's spicy tacos proved your immediate milk chug beats my old waiting game every time.
