God damn it. Why would the bottle have screaming faces on it if it wasn't even hot. That's some bullshit advertising.

There's also something called capsaicin. Apparently it's 16 million scoves. You'd really have to hate yourself to try that i think.

Capsaicin is present in every pepper, that is where they get their spice. You're talking about ingesting pure capsaicin.

So Scovilles is actually a measurement of purity?

It is a measure of pungency, but it does reflect on how much capsaicin is present in the pepper. Also, black pepper gets its spice from piperine, not capsaicin.

Resiniferatoxin is an extremely pungent capsaicin analogue, and the current spiciest substance we know of.

Not really, coming in contact with even a small amount can result in chemical burns.
