You’ll be fine Tiff! :)

There is a lot of hype about Wildfire Taffy, but after the first adrenaline rush it isn't too bad. I think it’s just the extra cinnamon that makes it “hot.’

I like hot stuff, so maybe I'm already trained.

You are correct.  There are no added spices.  It's just a basic taffy recipe that's made on-park.  And then they add about 1/3 cup of pure cinnamon oil to it.

I do actually!

If I am not sniffling, and gagging, and dripping in sweat then it isn't up to my standards. ;)

I bought a whole bag of it. It made me cry and my sister's boyfriend chewed it a couple of times then swallowed it whole. He couldn't feel his tongue for about an hour!

I found a trick: Eat it tiny bite by tiny bite and it's not so bad!

Way to go Tiff! ;D

It's not too bad. It definitely kicks, but it is doable. My relatives were at Silver Dollar City this weekend, and are going to bring me my own bag.

Okay, I take back what I said! My father went to Silver Dollar City last week, and brought me a bag full of Wildfire Taffy. Wow! I had forgotten just how intense it was. :-X ;D
