    I’m not an expert on Superman’s super mouth and GI tract, but I have some thoughts.

    First, whatever amount of spice that would approach Superman’s limit would be intense enough that mere humans couldn’t be anywhere near the chili cooking. The amount of capsaicin in the environment surrounding the chili pot would be toxic and possibly fatal.

    If he was making the chili at the Justice League headquarters the following would happen when Superman offered the chili to the others:

    Flash would phase around the capsaicin molocules and say that it was really great in a very non convincing way.

    Wonder Woman would take a bite and with flushed cheeks mention that the Amazonian women made a chowder that was a little hotter.

    Martian Manhunter would take a whiff of the Chili and decide that the sensation was too close to burning for his liking.

    Plastic-Man would be so annoying with his antics following a taste that Superman wouldn’t offer him any even though Plastic Man would be fine eating it.

    DCEU Aquaman would take a bite, and though it would burn and cause him hours of misery, he wouldn’t show it and proceed to drink 2 cases of beer.

    Batman would enter the kitchen in his Bat-Hazmat Suit and direct Clark’s attention to the posted rules for appropriate workplace food and mention that he expected everything to be cleaned up before the end of the workday. He’d then extract a sample of the chili for analysis and formulate countermeasures in case it was ever weaponized.

    Green Lantern would will himself to eat a bite, but surreptitiously surround the bite with a force bubble so his body didn’t have to actually ingest it.
