Capsicum is a base. The reason milk helps some is because it is slightly acidic. To neutralize the heat faster, try something that is more acidic, like lemon juice.
Next time, Irma, don’t put so many peppers on the eggs. Like I said before, why is it that Irma’s Diner hasn’t gotten in trouble for so many health violations?
me and spicy dont get along. went to a hot sauce store in Hudson,Ohio and tried a sample of one sauce. it was so hot I was using my teeth to scrape the heat from my tongue it was so hot
Carolina reapers by itself is enough heat to require a fire hydrant nearby. You could offer intravenous milk to the really ardent eaters. And, have you got a special license to even use this recipe? You might be in for a series of law suits after this Irma promotion is all over. Though you did warn them it was spicy, but you may have need to’ve done it in neon lighting.
Believe it or not, a teaspoon of sugar will help alleviate the burning cause by the peppers. Now what happens in the digestive system is another matter.
I would not use fresh hot peppers with fried eggs, I currently use Tabasco® Scorpion hot sauce, but I made my chili this week with three dried Carolina Reapers and barely noticed them. I am going add couple more next time.

I don’t get the attraction to this stuff – maybe they’ve burned out their taste buds and that’s all they can taste any more?

Finally, a comic strip that does it right. Milk is the solution to stop the pain in your mouth after eating hot peppers, or hot sauce
