As of Monday, Mucho Burrito diners can order the special burrito in two designations: Hotter than Hell and Wimpy. The special runs until Nov. 2, or perhaps more fittingly, Mexico's Día de los Muertos(Day of the Dead.)
Both burritos come with ghost pepper bacon, ghost pepper-infused fig marmalade, spicy Mexican rice, salsa and a choice of meat — not that you will be able to taste much once that pepper starts to work its magic.
While "Wimpy" certainly isn't by any standard, the Hotter than Hell is where you'll get your money's worth. Because in addition to all the pepper-laced ingredients, these bad boys get topped off with a splash of pure Ghost Pepper sauce.
Haha. Rathji just in case you don't watch South Park, that's just a voiceover taken from an episode from a few years ago and put over Lego stop motion (or whatever that's called).
It was easy first two bites were spicy but nothing unbearable got crushed jalapeño with it. Finished off a bottle of the strawberry pop and two sips of chocolate milk.The ghost pepper wings from ceilies was worse.

Eating it right now, and yes it is very hot. I went with the hotter than hell one of course, it packs quite a punch to it and unfortunately removes much of the flavor.
Still worth a try though. Although, I think the hot salsa they serve is actually spicier.
Just don't try and cool off with a Dr. Pepper... it just makes the situation a whole lot worse.

Just had one from the food court down below. Went wimpy as I love spice, but too hot just hurts (and sometimes renders me with hiccups).
It was delicious. Nice flavours from the usual burrito. Went with steak.
My buddy and I tried the hotter than hell. He devoured it and I only ate about half (wasn't hungry). While it is the hottest thing I have ever eaten, I was expecting more from the Ghost Burrito.
Got to try a wimpy today. I thought it was really good. Not really that spicy, but enough bite that you had a nice warm feeling in your mouth.
I might try the hotter than hell next time. I guess they are done on the 31st.
The guys at the Shawnessy location made me the biggest burrito I ever had though. It was just stuffed with toppings. Definitely got my money's worth. Was a yummy burrito and a good experience.
Had the hotter than hell for lunch. Didn't taste hot until afterwards. I think the bottom of the burrito where the sauce collects is what really got me. Manage to get through the entire thing but had to down the 500 ml of pop afterwards.
