It's a total myth that the seeds hold the most heat. The fact is they hold ZERO heat all. The heat is all in the placenta. Johnny Scoville explains this on his channel and I've also heard Ed Curry of the Pucker Butt chili empire say the same. Love the channel mate.
@@BaldFoodieGuy The chili that is in this curry , that full size chili isn't a Carolina Reaper lol but still it was a hot curry , when iceland released it. The product no longer is around.
eating one while i watch this video! i consider myself a seasoned chillihead, been eating superhots and extracts for year, my capsaicin tolerance has gotten pretty darn high! and gotta say this curry was up there with the hottest things i've ever eaten, it isn't a supermarket gimmick, this thing is FIRE!
I can confirm, but it depends on the day for me. I love vindaloos, tindaloos, phaals etc and not just for the heat, but the interplay of flavours too. This bad boy can seem mild if I build my chilli tolerance up, but burn my mouth out if I let it slide and eat proper English food for a while. Buyer beware lol.
You're a braver man than I !!! We tried it and it was almost brutal . We had to sort of tone it down by diluting it with other sauces . Even then had to drink loads of water to get through it . My backside was on fire the next day . Well done bald foodie guy for finishing it .
Dilute with milk or yoghurt for better results. Finely chopped spices tend to stick to the tongue and water doesn't wash it away. Dairy products sort of "gloop" over the affected surface and carry the spices with them.
I tried one of these a while back. I love my spicy food but this very nearly overwhelmed me. After a few mouthfuls the heat definitely took over. I finished it but it took me a good 20 or 30 minutes and copious amounts of milk to get through it. 😆 My stomach wasn't too impressed though. 😬
Afternoon Gareth another oldie for me to watch and it did make me laugh. Glad you enjoyed the curry know you love a curry. Really enjoyed the vlog thank you
I used to eat those two also, but I have actually gone a bit more mild lately and discovered the flavours that a kahari offers. It's got a low- medium heat nothing crazy but the grilled peppers and onion chunkyness got me. Something just tastes amazing about grilled peppers chicken and other bits of veg in a curry sauce. If you like heat ask for chili fried rice. It's amazing if done well!
Looks like I'll be in for a right ride with this one, just got mine today. Preparing my self after watching a few reviews and you haven't left me with much hope.
Great Video. Curry looks amazing! Quick FYI, it's a bit of a myth that seeds are the hottest part of a chilli, it's actually the placenta, just up from the stem. Enjoyed the vid - liked & subscribed 👍
I saw you were considering eating this again 😜. With me, the stomach cramps started almost immediately, and I was actually having minor convulsions. It doesn't get better quickly either. So I bought another couple, and the 2nd time wasn't as bad. Vindaloos and Phalls tasted like Korma at that point. I didn't have third one for a few months and it was just as bad as the first time. Tolerance lost
My late brother (was bald) used to say his gasket had gone when he'd eaten something hot, that made his head sweat lol. Too hot for me that Gareth but another great review, have a good weekend.👍
They are ok but better out there , generally most curries under 3 or 4 quid at times the meat can be abit chewy as its lower quality , the best curries going are waitrose madras and vindaloo , that's a proper curry
Good video. 2 things though, first the hottest part of the chilli being the seeds is actually a fallacy, it is actually the white membrane (placenta) inside the chilli that contains the most capsaicin. The second thing is that the large red chilli isn't actually a Carolina reaper as they are small and misshaped, this is probably something like a Aleppo.
I have a psychosomatic reaction now, so if I watch videos about chilli peppers or even talk about them I actually start to sweat, and quite profusely. Never happened when I was younger but started about 10 years ago, after probably 15 years of eating very spicy food. I guess it's my body putting up the defences early when it thinks an attack is coming... Watching this made me sweat!! Great upload.
I have watched other food programmes and they say although the seeds can be hot it is because they are in contact with the white inner membrane. This is where you find the heat originates
Had one of these about a year ago. It came with warning labels on the packaging - I thought it was a gimmick, but ohhh no! Really tasty and very hot. I eat all the chicken but could not finish the sauce. \i did try as it was lovely.
Currently in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Never come across a Carolina Curry. But this week did have a Tikka masala curry sauce from Aldi. It was pretty good - from Poland but not Birmingham UK.
I paid a visit to Iceland and got this curry having not seen this video, I have had the reaper sausage,chicken strips,sausages are very mild loved the chicken,I also love hot spicy food so got the reaper curry wow 😲 ,for the first time in my 73 years I've never been beaten buy a hot curry this one beat me.This curry Is very hot but a good flavor, for me i would like it a couple of 🌶️🌶️ less.I was told many years ago by an Indian waiter the only way to stop the curry burn,is milk or yourgot or something sweet i don't take milk or sugar but I did have some clear honey four tea spoon and relief.You mate are my hero, that was the hottest ruby I've had, I don't know how you managed to eat that chili better man than me gunger din.🔥🔥 HOT STUFF.
Haha cheers Les. Yes took me half hour and my belly was in a bad way for 24hrs. That chilli is a Jinta chilli. It's not hot but tasty. Thank you. All the best, Gareth 🔥🔥😋😋👌👌
Hello! I have recently started watching your videos and enjoy the similar food comparison ones. Can you please sample steak in a tin, as I find the cheaper ones do not contain must steak and are not a lot cheaper! Do you cook and warm up some foods in an air fryer?
I thought I had quite a high spice tolerance! I'm partial to a madras, vindaloo, tindaloo or phaal, but this Iceland Carolina Reaper curry is on another planet compared to anything I've ever eaten before! This thing is absolutely relentless.
Well what can i say another great review and i just love your humour! It did look hot that curry, thanks for the fedback i might try one now i was unsure just incase it was too hot but think it will be ok. Bye and thanks again Gareth 😉😁👌👍👍
My father in law grew up in India when he was a kid as his dad was a shipwright, he was on a team that were building the gun ships and designing various proportion Any way he always has a sliced banana on his curry, I asked what doesit do, it counteracts the heat without taking the flavour away. It really is nice
Bought the ghost chili chicken curry from Iceland for a quid on sale. Shared it with a m8, mixed with a mild curry and it still nearly blew our heads off! Not to mention my belly in the morning lol
I love the Iceland range of curries. I've tried this one twice, first time wasn't too bad but I couldn't finish it the second time. I used to be able to eat vindaloo and phall with no problem at all but not so much now. I'd definitely recommend some Himalayan dishes, lots of spices and flavours but without the burning heat.
I have had this curry several times before and the atomic vindaloo Well worth the money. Honestly can't fault them. Always look forward to your videos xx
Tried this. It was hot. Didn't live up to the expectation but did the job. The Morrisons one was hotter. Iceland seemed to just put the scarily spicy on loads of products. I remember trying some sausages and they were shite.
I’ve had loads of these and also the Morrisons pair. You must have had a dud mate as I can definitely say the reaper curry is far far hotter than the Morrisons phaal or vindaloo. Funnily enough I’ve just polished off one of reaper curries just now and it really didn’t disappoint. I wouldn’t want to be my arse tomorrow.
@@markclarke2763exactly. The reaper is a killer. I got a feeling some people just try one tiny bit and say " oh it's not as hot as I thought" fucking try eating a whole one It takes more then one small nibble for the fire to kick in lol yes your ass will be on fire tommo lol
@@donnn-ow4rj I think you’re probably right. It really kicks when I get about a third of the way in for me. The Morrisons curries should rebranded to Cow and Gate by comparison.
@@markclarke2763 yeah I agree. I have had 2 reepers now and love them. Ok technically speaking they are to hot even for my taste but I still love them......on occasions lol
I’ve tried all the supermarkets hot curry’s, this one is definitely the hottest out of them all, the actually chilli isn’t hot at all but very tasty, keep up the good work, I shop in Iceland all the time 😀
Just found this review,I actually like these,but the could do with being less watery in sauce but yes not for the faint hearted for sure,they usually do a scarily spicy pizza around Halloween and bonfire night,very similar heat value. Be proud you got through yours tho
I had 2 of these in my life, about 6 months apart. It's a shame Iceland stopped selling them but the fact that they never came back shows the lack of repeat customers the curry had! I'd guess that less than 5% of people could eat a full one. Each time I had it, it took about an hour to eat and the curry was stone cold by the end, but still burning just as bad as when it was warm. These are on another level for a supermarket curry, but the funny thing is I got one 6 months after trying it the first time, so how bad can they be really. Unless you're a veteran curry eater, forget eating this, you won't finish it. The worst part was that disgusting pepper they put in, not because of the heat (it wasn't even spicy really) but because the skin was like trying to eat plastic.
Great review again Gareth and thanks for confirming my thoughts that these supermarket curries are never gonna to be as hot as the restaurant varieties but still still good valve for £1.95 and you can pimp up the heat yourself with all the chilli oils out there 😆😆😉 Top tips I always add some fresh chopped coriander to these supermarkets curries and sometimes a pinch of garam masala for more authenticity and it gets me halfway there to restaurant quality without having to pay a £10 for the privilege of a sore ring piece in the morning 😂😂😂 Try these with a minty yoghurt raita and don't forget to pop the wet wipes in the freezer for an hour or 2 😂😉😆
Eyup mate I tried this yesterday and you were sat on my knee with this video playing on my phone. My mrs looked at me like I were a right fanny with my ice pop the minute I finished it haha. Nice curry tho 👍🏻
I tend to stay away from that sort of chicken because on back of pack says chicken is from Thailand lol and I only like uk produce. I’m not a spice fan at all can’t handle it 😂
Looks amazing, though I have to say that I've given up on microwave rice and gone back to cooking rice on the stove. Much cheaper, although I did have an issue with the saucepan boiling over, during simmering. That was solved by finding a fool proof (it needed to be) method, on, where else? UA-cam! 🍚😉👍
Looked everywhere for this in Fuengirola Iceland but no luck ,mustnt be exporting this one yet ,hope they do soon .Great videos Gareth keep them coming
I've tried the Morrisons volcanic vindaloo with no issues so I'll give this ago as have seen it on a few other vlogs. Good price for a challenge I guess. Tbh I'm betting the wife's habbanero chilli's from the garden are hotter. She put them in a wrap with donner meat and salt a pepper chicken from icelands and it blew my bottom out the next morning 🤣👍
@@BaldFoodieGuy Morrisons do an incredibly hot one. The Flaming Fiery Phaal, which is considered the hottest supermarket curry in the world. I dare you 😎
Take them on a car trip to cartmel….go to the sticky toffee pudding shop, could be a good video, you could do a brief interview with the staff and I know they sell to some high class places..just a suggestion
Normally I'm a Tikka Masala person but I might try this for a laugh. I popped into Iceland in Aldershot the other day (first time in ages). They do some nice stuff. I was looking for the steak grilled potato shapes you featured, coincidentally they are my favorite crisps at the moment. I would never have known these potato shapes existed if it weren.t for your channel, so thanks! I plan to try them Monday with a homemade cheeseburger.
The chilli on top isnt a reaper its just a normal common chilli so you could of ate the seeds no problem it wouldnt of been anywhere near as hot as the actual curry
It's a total myth that the seeds hold the most heat. The fact is they hold ZERO heat all. The heat is all in the placenta. Johnny Scoville explains this on his channel and I've also heard Ed Curry of the Pucker Butt chili empire say the same. Love the channel mate.

Great review again Gareth and thanks for confirming my thoughts that these supermarket curries are never gonna to be as hot as the restaurant varieties but still still good valve for £1.95 and you can pimp up the heat yourself with all the chilli oils out there 😆😆😉
Top tips I always add some fresh chopped coriander to these supermarkets curries and sometimes a pinch of garam masala for more authenticity and it gets me halfway there to restaurant quality without having to pay a £10 for the privilege of a sore ring piece in the morning 😂😂😂 Try these with a minty yoghurt raita and don't forget to pop the wet wipes in the freezer for an hour or 2 😂😉😆
Thank you, great comment. I'm suffering now though lol
Eaten a fair few of these during the last year or so, beast of a curry. Nuclear grade heat. Not bad for under £2.
Yes it's a good one isn't it. Took me half hour. Couldn't eat all the rice though. Give me a bad belly for 24hrs lol
My a-hole was left feeling like a dragon's nostril after eating one of these. I left the chilli to the end and couldn't do it 😂.

Looked everywhere for this in Fuengirola Iceland but no luck ,mustnt be exporting this one yet ,hope they do soon .Great videos Gareth keep them coming
Cheers Simon
Not read anyone else’s comments. Thought that was a hot dog!😂
ITS THE SEEDS THAT GIVE YOU THE HEAT
Hey Garth looks really nice enjoy mate I might try one cu later 😊💯
I've tried the Morrisons volcanic vindaloo with no issues so I'll give this ago as have seen it on a few other vlogs. Good price for a challenge I guess. Tbh I'm betting the wife's habbanero chilli's from the garden are hotter. She put them in a wrap with donner meat and salt a pepper chicken from icelands and it blew my bottom out the next morning 🤣👍
I've got the vindaloo from Asda in the fridge. £2.50 Mr. Bungle pound off
@@BaldFoodieGuy I bought that one today too but I always add fresh and powdered chilli as it’s not even as hot as a madras….
My belly is in turmoil now lol
@@BaldFoodieGuy haha wait til tomorrow!!!😂😂
It's bad now lol
Can't believe you finished all of it. It was impossible
i could not finish this when i had it a few years ago, never again lol
AHA! That's the one! I thought it was a phal I'd bought but it must have been this one, as I recognise that chili
oh this was hot
@@BaldFoodieGuy Morrisons do an incredibly hot one. The Flaming Fiery Phaal, which is considered the hottest supermarket curry in the world. I dare you 😎
Absolutely spot on 🤣😂
Haha cheers 👍
Hi Gareth mate How can Support your Chanel? All the best Deano
Hi Dean. That's very kind of you too say. Your supporting me by watching the videos that's great. Have a good weekend, all the best, Gareth 👌
Hi mate seen your Iceland barbecue mini ribs video just wondered if you,ve checked out the aldi rack of ribs ,they are well worth it .
Yes they are lovely, we often get them. Thank you Sean
Take them on a car trip to cartmel….go to the sticky toffee pudding shop, could be a good video, you could do a brief interview with the staff and I know they sell to some high class places..just a suggestion
Great idea
The color of this alone screamed danger
Crazy how many supermarket lines are getting on the Carolina Reaper train!
Yes it's nuts👍
Yeah, them steamed rices are very nice. The bag ones are very dry.
Normally I'm a Tikka Masala person but I might try this for a laugh. I popped into Iceland in Aldershot the other day (first time in ages). They do some nice stuff. I was looking for the steak grilled potato shapes you featured, coincidentally they are my favorite crisps at the moment. I would never have known these potato shapes existed if it weren.t for your channel, so thanks! I plan to try them Monday with a homemade cheeseburger.
Your welcome, what a lovely comment. Try the mc coys salt and malt vinegar ones too. I don't a video on them also. Very tasty. All the best, Gareth
Heartburn material, keep the gaviscon handy
I saw couple tastes of curry and little bit of the reaper but no seeds so guessing you didn't finish ? Not saying I could ....
Yes I left some rice that's all. My belly took a beating for 24hrs after
The chilli on top isnt a reaper its just a normal common chilli so you could of ate the seeds no problem it wouldnt of been anywhere near as hot as the actual curry
Great review loved the slippery chicken quote! Great description
Haha thanks 😘👍
