Some netizens, however, were baffled and questioned the blogger’s decision of trying the burning snack.
“Just one question, why?” commented one.
“I doubt if this is gonna taste any better,” quipped another.
Another bunch of users were scared and wondered if it hurt.
“That flame was on inside the mouth too,” posted one.
“Are you ok?”, asked another, to which the blogger replied “Ya, I am. It looks scary but wasn’t actually.”
