Origin[]

William Makepeace Thackeray was a novelist known for his satirical works depicting English society, the most famous of which was Vanity Fair. When his health deteriorated near the end of his life, he avoided exercise and replaced it with large amounts of food. Instead of writing, he spent most of his few years eating spicy peppers and ruining his digestion.

Effects[]

Gravy within it, and all food the gravy touches, will be seasoned to perfection. The food becomes increasingly addictingly spicy, however, and prolonged exposure to the food will cause consumers to sweat the food they ate out of their body.
