Daily Mail UK
Doctors in China were left dumbfounded when they discovered a hole in a man’s stomach wall after he ate a notoriously spicy bowl of soup.
The 26-year-old unnamed male had consumed a mala soup, meaning ‘numbing hot’, a traditional Chinese dish.
After choosing the spiciest version of the dish from the menu, the man soon experienced a piercing pain in his stomach.
Deadly: After consuming a dish of mala soup, the 26-year-old male was admitted to hospital in Wuhan, China. Doctors concluded that the notoriously spicy soup had burned a hole through his stomach
The unlucky customer soon found himself vomiting blood before being rushed to a local hospital in Wuhan.
Despite having no medical history of ulcers or other gastrointestinal disorders, doctors concluded that the spicy soup had burned a hole through his stomach wall.
According to a report on Japanese site Rocket News 24, 15 per cent of incidents involving stomachs at the hospital are related to hot pot dishes.

Walking into the Tu Pho King Hot cafe should have been his first clue…

A number of years ago the ol’ lady and I were at PF Changs for dinner. I selected some beef deal that was supposedly the hottest thing they sold. I was asked twice by the waitress if that’s what I wanted before the manager came and asked me again.
I had a little perspiration while eating, but it wasn’t the hottest stuff I ever ate.
Considering the location of this restaurant, it was apparent some little proggies ordered the same stuff and had a shit fit!

I have Sriracha on the side when I eat Pho Soup.
No way I’d eat something like mala soup.

Pizza Hut’s Buffalo Burnin’ Hot chicken wings damn near did that to me, too.

Yummy! I enjoy spicy foods, but hot just for the sake of hot is not enjoyable.

I love hot and spicy foods but this stuff sounds way damned hot for human consumption. And I heard a commercial yesterday for one of our local microbreweries that had a jalapeno ale that they advertised as cold and spicy, I think I’ll pass.
