<\/a>Paqui Carolina Reaper chips, they\u2019re still pretty hot. Are they \u201cscary hot\u201d like the bag says? Not really.<\/p>\nIs there anything else I need to know?<\/h3>\n
These get you with an all-encompassing mouth heat. It\u2019s not just gonna get you in the back of the throat. My lips burned, but at no point was I running for the milk. <\/p>\n
They lose a bit of that initial BBQ-like flavor as the heat grows, but they\u2019re still tasty. I also felt a soft burn for a good 15 minutes after eating them.<\/p>\n
I only ate about two handfuls before I stopped. I\u2019m not sure that\u2019s even a full serving, so these could very well continue to build to the point they become unbearable if you eat too much.<\/p>\n

Oh, and in case you were wondering, you get all the standard Chex Mix favorites represented \u2013 Chex, Pretzels (windows and circles), Pumpernickel Bagel Chips and Breadsticks.<\/p>\n
Conclusion:<\/h3>\n
If you like spicy food and Chex Mix, these are a no-brainer purchase. Don\u2019t be afraid, as I\u2019m not even positive these are hotter than the Doritos Blaze chips.<\/p>\n
I like it, but Ghost Pepper is not a Chex Mix flavor I can polish off like I usually would, so I\u2019ll personally never repurchase them.<\/p>\n
They ultimately just made me yearn for a Honey BBQ Chex Mix variety.<\/p>\n

What is it? After discontinuing the \u201creally freaking hot\u201d Hot & Spicy variety, Chex Mix is back with a new \u201cscary hot\u201d Ghost Pepper flavor. How is it?
