LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- If you ever have seven of your closest friends over for a party -- and one you absolutely hate -- there's a new pizza just for them. But you'll have to travel to Japan to get it.
According to a report by Fox News, Domino's Pizza locations in Japan are serving for their brave (or masochistic?) customers. It's a new "Halloween Roulette" pizza, which contains a single unmarked slice doused in sauce made from ghost peppers.
The campaign, which runs through Nov. 4, allows customers to order any pizza of their choice before selecting the free "Halloween Roulette" option, which means the kitchen staff has the go-ahead to spike one slice with a small amount of the seriously hot sauce.
Ghost peppers were once classified as the world's hottest before being usurped by a couple of other strains, including the Carolina reaper. (The developer behind the Carolina reaper claimed to have bred a spicier chili in 2017, but that pepper -- Pepper X -- has yet to be recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records.)
Ghost peppers are still quite hot, and have even been mixed with grease and smeared on fences as a deterrent for elephants in some African and Asian countries, according to the Asian Elephant Specialist Group.
And now, apparently, they're on a pizza.
The amount of sauce Domino's is slathering on, however, is said to be small, according to Japan Today, so the unluckiest among any given pizza-eating group "won't suffer unbearably," the outlet wrote. An Instagram post from Domino's Japan also appears to indicate that the sauce is applied with a dropper.
