If that wasn t enough, Wild Africa Cream will sponsor our annual Chili Eating Competition. The contestants may not leave unscathed but at least they ll leave soothed and probably slightly sloshed. If
Who knows what it is about spicy hotness that attracts us – though it’s been likened to the same thrill-seeking behavior as watching horror movies – but whatever the case may be, once our tongue’s gotten its butt kicked and our lips are set aflame, at some point, we seek relief.
The go-to solution tends to be a glass of milk or yogurt to help wash away spicy compounds whether they be water- or fat-soluble. But the contestants at this year’s competition will be having a bit more fun with it by relieving the spice (only once they’ve been eliminated, of course!) with KWV’s Wild Africa Cream, the exclusive sponsor of the competition.
