WARNING: EXTREME SPICE CONTENT
WTF Hot Snacks products are designed for adults and contain extremely hot chili peppers and extracts, including but not limited to Carolina Reaper, Trinidad Moruga Scorpion, Ghost Pepper (Bhut Jolokia), and 7 Pot Brain Strain peppers. These peppers are known for their intense heat, measured in Scoville Heat Units (SHU), and can cause significant physical discomfort and adverse reactions.
1. Assumption of Risk
I, the undersigned ("Participant"), hereby acknowledge and agree that I am fully aware of the nature of WTF Hot Snacks products and the potential risks associated with consuming food items containing extreme levels of capsaicin (the active component in chili peppers). I understand that these risks may include, but are not limited to:
- Intense burning sensation in the mouth, throat, and stomach.
- Gastrointestinal distress, including stomach pain, cramping, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.
- Sweating, flushing, shortness of breath, and increased heart rate.
- Watery eyes, runny nose, and temporary loss of speech.
- Aggravation of pre-existing medical conditions (e.g., asthma, GERD, heart conditions, allergies).
- Allergic reactions, which may in rare cases be severe or life-threatening.
- Contact irritation to skin or eyes if products are mishandled.
I voluntarily and knowingly assume all such risks, known and unknown, even if arising from the negligence of WTF Hot Snacks or others, and assume full responsibility for my participation and consumption.
