Bleeding Sun Hot Sauce Myth

Bleeding Sun Hot Sauce, named after the fierce dragon species known for its fiery breath, is an exceptionally potent and spicy condiment. Initially believed to be suitable only for consumption by dragonkin and deemed unsafe for humans, it has now been proven that this hot sauce is not limited to draconian palates.   The intensely fiery hot sauce is meticulously crafted using a rare and exceptionally potent pepper. This extraordinary pepper is sourced from a cactus native to the harsh and arid environment of the Duskfire Desert. Known for its intense heat and distinctive flavor, the pepper is inedible for humans in its raw form, making it a unique and challenging ingredient to work with. Interestingly, this pepper is a favorite food of Bleeding Sun dragons, who are seemingly immune to its fiery properties. This natural resistance to the pepper's intense heat has made it an integral part of the diet of these remarkable creatures.

Spread

The myth has spread across the varied terrains of Azlov, achieving the utmost recognition in the historically significant areas of Arkynshire and Drakemyst, where it has become deeply ingrained in the culture and folklore of the locals.   The origin of the myth about the inedibility of the hot sauce stemmed from the use of a particular pepper that is typically considered inedible for humans. This pepper, however, is roasted prior to being incorporated into the sauce. This roasting process effectively eliminates some of the harmful chemicals present in the pepper, rendering it safe for human consumption. In contrast, dragonkin have no issues consuming this pepper in its raw form, contributing to the misconception that the hot sauce was unsuitable for human consumption. As soon as the public became aware of the fact that the harmful substances in the pepper are cooked off during the roasting process, the hot sauce gained popularity as a condiment for various foods.
