Jennifer Garner Feels the Burn After Taking Her Own Hot Pepper Challenge
LOS ANGELES, CA - What happens when a Golden Globe winning actor challenges herself to her own hot pepper challenge? I give you Jennifer Garner, the latest to take to social media to show off her spicy produce-eating skills—or, if you watch the video, lack thereof.
On Monday, the Alias, 13 Going on 30, and more recently Capital One commercial star, hopped on Instagram to show off her home gardening talents, picking what looks to be a serrano or jalapeño pepper from her plot.
“What do you think: Is it going to be hot?” she asks as she takes a very generous chomp out of the green pepper and, suffice it to say, the answer turns out to be: yes.
“I wish I hadn’t done that. It’s not funny,” she grimaces, and you can clearly tell she is not exactly enjoying the experience.
So, what is her go-to remedy? Unfortunately, the garden hose and the cooling flavor of some her home-grown lettuce couldn’t tame the flames that were being stoked in Jennifer’s mouth.
“Regret! Regret! Regret!” she chanted, clapping her hands in frustration.
“Me vs. pepper. Upshot: Not as cool as I thought I was. #soyouthinkyoucanfarm #regretregretregret,” she captioned the video that had the ANUK office giggling aloud.
What do you think? Could Jennifer Garner make it in the pepper industry? Watch the video above and decide for yourself.
