If you’re planning to enter our Spicy Food Eating Competition, you might want to listen carefully.

In Round 3, Poor Decisions, contestants will come face-to-face with Shay’s Wheel of Pain. One spin decides which Spicy Boys sauce they’ll be tackling with an Empire Chicken wing.

The bad news?

Every option is a bad option. 😈🔥

Watch out for the Spicy Boys stall at Fire & Spice, and don’t miss them bringing the heat to our competition!
