The chili pepper, from Nahuatl chīlli, is the berry-fruit of plants from the genus Capsicum which
 are members of the nightshade family, Solanaceae. Chili peppers are widely used in many
 cuisines as a spice to add pungent 'heat' to dishes.

 To see with is the best way to cool down the hot chilies taste in your mouth when eating chilli. I think that
 by using milk sour cram and other dairy products I will be able to remove the hot chilli taste from your
 mouth. We will be using Milk, water, coca cola, tasting cups and chilli.

Summary and Results:

Milk had a small effect on the chilli. After three minutes it took the whole taste away 

Coke had a small effect on the chilli. Cook worked well after 3 minutes and removed the taste totally

Water did not remove the chilli taste at all. After 3 minutes it removed the taste slightly 

Milk would be the most effective drink to use with spicy , chilli food 

Conclusion 

Milk could be a solution when eating spicy food-literally. That's because milk help your mouth handle capsaicin, an oi;y chemical in chilli peppers. Capsaicin blinds to a receptor in the tongue and creates a burning sensation... Casein protein found in milk can also bind to the capsaicin and wash it away
