About Chili
Black Shack Chili
Droppin’ Knowledge
Ingredients in chili increase your heartbeat, clear the sinuses, and your mouth becomes irritated, as evidenced by a burning sensation. This causes your brain to respond by creating endorphins, natural painkillers that are a part of the body's self--defense. This causes you to experience a feeling of euphoria giving new meaning to the nickname "Chili Head."
