Oh my gosh, I tried a jalapeño pepper for the first time ever at work. So one of my co-workers walked up to me and she was like, “Would you try a jalapeño donut?” And I was like, “Well, I’ve never had a jalapeño before.” And she’s like, “All these losers say that they wouldn’t try it, and that’s so boring.” And, you know, this specific co-worker has been calling me, like, the most boring and stuck up out of all the co-workers. And I’m like, “Okay, you know what? I feel like I might try anything once.”
And when I said this, I didn’t, like, think that she actually had jalapeño donuts or anything. I just, like, was saying it to try to seem cool, or whatever. So my co-worker picks up her bag of mini donuts and she gets a jalapeño, like one of the ones from the nachos, and takes it out of the fridge and puts it on the donut and says, “Here, eat it.” And, like, at this point, I am in way too far to back out of this thing. Like, I have to eat it or else I’m gonna seem like a total loser. So I just put the whole thing in my mouth, and I tried my first jalapeño ever on a donut, and oh my gosh, it was nasty.
I’m not really a spicy foods person, like, at all, but here I was, eating this jalapeño donut. And I feel like it made it a little bit better than it was with the donut. It’s like one of those chocolate frosted mini donuts, and I think the sweetness helped a little bit, but I drank a lot of soda after that. And it’s not something I’m looking to do in the near future, but like, hey, at least I’m not the boring co-worker now.
