Lick very small amount of sauce made with ghost chili extract, or lick very small amount of ghost chili extract itself? On a TV show, I heard that even a tiny amount of a concentrated form of a certain chili pepper can actually harm the tissue on your tongue/in your mouth, and I think it was the ghost chili they were talking about.

I'd like to try it. I'm not bad with my tolerance for spicy food; probably better than many Americans. I don't like spicy food to be too spicy, though. If something is too spicy (I'm not even talking crazy spicy, either), than the food isn't really enjoyable. Every now and then, I like some decent amount of heat with some foods.
Sometimes I have stomach acid issues and spicy food can easily cause that. These things started happening more in recent years (stomach acid issues). I remember being a teenager and not knowing what this "heartburn" adults spoke of was like.
