Snort one crushed up Altoid Mint (spearmint)

The burning passes quickly and leaves everything smelling and tasting pleasantly minty for hours afterward.
Your stomach and digestive system are completely spared — no burning throat or gut discomfort from hot sauce.

Take a shot (1.5 oz.) of Tabasco Sauce

Snorting any powder risks cutting nasal tissue and causing nosebleeds or lasting damage; drinking hot sauce is a known quantity.
Tabasco is a food product millions consume regularly — a single shot causes brief discomfort, not physical harm.
The burn from hot sauce passes within minutes in the stomach, while snorted mint lingers in the sinuses far longer.
