An Orange County Sheriff’s deputy is facing jail time after being accused of pepper spraying a teen's pizza without his knowledge during a traffic stop last year, prosecutors said.

Juan Tavera, a six-year veteran of the Orange County Sheriff’s Department at the time of the alleged crime, faces one year in jail if convicted of spraying the pizza and ultimately sickening five people who ate it, according to a release by the Orange County District Attorney's Office.

Tavera, 30, allegedly pulled over a 19-year-old named as John Doe for a traffic violation on Sept. 8, 2012, when he noticed a pizza in the back seat and pepper sprayed it without the teen noticing, the release stated.

The teen returned home to share the pizza with four friends, and all five people became sick as a result of ingesting the pepper spray-contaminated pie. He became suspicious and notified the sheriff’s department of his interaction with the deputy, the DA's office said.

If you're curious as to what happens if you use pepper spray to make your food extra spicy, this is it.

The dangerous thing about eating pepper spray as food is that it hits you slowly. After you take the first bite or two, you think "Hey, this isn't hot at all. I'll eat some more!" Then the heat builds, and the heat builds, and the heat builds! Heat upon heat upon heat! Before long you feel like your mouth's been napalmed!
