So, with my conclusion leaving many of you perhaps disappointed I'd love to hear where in Plymouth has the ability to blow my head off because I know we all want to see that. It's that or I just happen to be able to endure spice after all (but I'm thinking it's the first one). I expected a fire in my body long into the night but I've got a sneaking suspicion there may be hotter challenges out there. The effects were pretty much over by the end of the video.

#Hot chip challenge update
I said I'd give you an update on my thoughts and what happened after the challenge and well, to be honest, not much. I also particularly enjoyed the lady who asked why I was wearing my nan's tea towel which I wished I had seen at the time (I promise I'm not crying too hard). I received many comments from all you lovely people out there telling me I'd need to "freeze my loo roll" and "they'll be screams from the Herald office toilet later", which I loved.

I was also set the challenge of reading out the Herald's top stories as I aimed to withstand the need to drink and tame the flames in my mouth. So eating an incredibly spicy chip underneath Smeaton's Tower in public seemed the right thing to do - thanks guys. The fear grew each day, and no I'm not being dramatic I was scared okay?Īnyway, the day arrived and we decided to put a local spin on the challenge. I had originally pitched the idea thinking it would be fine but from the day the chip arrived I knew I'd made a mistake and was clearly going to be out of my depth. So, what possessed me to take on this daunting challenge? Was it the chance to finally experience a new taste explosion, or was it out of pure bravery? No, it was just something I pitched in a desperate attempt to entertain you lot. I love a curry but it has to be a korma or a pasanda - call me crazy but I don't understand the appeal of sweating buckets in a restaurant. Now, I should mention I'm not a spicy food lover, in fact I'd describe myself as a spicy food hater - and that doesn't do it justice. The One Chip Challenge even comes with a disclaimer (Image: Elliot Ball)
