I was bored on Friday and procrastinating from my important obligations (work, taxes); so I decided to shoot this little, self-indulgent video of me eating horseradish on my webcam. I’m not sure it adequately captures the sinus-clearing pain that one feels upon ingesting the near toxic condiment, but maybe it will give you a vague sense of the discomfort.
(And for all you wondering, I made Sly and IndianJones try the horseradish this weekend, and they too were quite taken aback by the sensation. Sly in particular had a rather violent, borderline-seizure reaction during one of her mouthfuls, forcing her to double over and hack for a good five or six seconds. It was great.)
