    I have eaten Thai food cooked by Thai people. This is not the user friendly pad thai that Americans have grown accustomed to eating. This is destroy your face pure heat that can only be satiated by a big glass of milk.

    Thai food, in my experience, is not as hot as nuclear tacos.

    Here is an an SAT style analogy for you. It won't make your brain hurt the same way it did when you took the SAT, since I've answered it for you:

    Nuclear Tacos is not something you can understand until you've tried it. Inevitably you always want to come back for more. Hit it up before crashing the other SxSW parties on March 10th. Just don't forget to RSVP:

    P.S. Decibel is quite right. What keeps you coming back is the fact that nuclear tacos are indeed quite tasty.

    I have abused these tacos. I have physically suffered these tacos. It is painful to eat two of these tacos and then go out drinking recklessly. They are made by mad scientists. You will need the sour cream, do not forget to dollop it on - abundantly. Begin your prep-work now, but know that there is nothing that can truly prepare you. Be brave; go nuclear.

    Any animal with opposable thumbs can take something and pile a bunch of hot sauce in it. Know what that tastes like? Food made by DuPont chemical, that's what.

    Yes, Nuclear Tacos are damn hot... for most folks it's the hottest thing they've ever eaten or ever will eat. But what I really pride myself in is making them also taste *good*.

    Sadly, the logistics of SXSW mean we can't use fresh peppers, but we still do our best to bring you the best tasting tacos we can.

    And please, if you ever feel the tacos aren't hot enough for you... let us know. We'll make sure to rectify the situation with the next batch!
