my son took a bite of a scotch bonnet and his mouth is on fire,he has been drinking milk etc,what do you recommend.

Similar thing to Chris's, though much later and not culinary related. I had been rubbing some Fiery Jack into my sore arm. Went for a wee without washing my hands. Same effect.

Lassi =yoghurt

Thank you for that very useful tip. Next time I do anything so stupid I will just dip my thingy in a tub of yoghurt.

Memo to me - never accept a yogurt from mike11111

I managed to rub my eye after chopping them, one side of my face felt like it was on fire.
( yes, I have two eyes before anyone starts! :p )

Nothing worse than chopping chillies, washing your hands, as you do, and then biting your nails 3 hours later, the heat is still there!

try bread with no butter or marg on it, that gave me a restaraunt in Thailand and it worked.
