"El Viaje Misterioso de Nuestro Jomer (The Mysterious Voyage of Homer)", (Spanish pronunciation: [el ˈbja.xe misteɾˈjoso de ˈnwes.tɾo ˈxomeɾ]) also known as The Mysterious Voyage of Our Homer, is the ninth episode of the eighth season of The Simpsons. It originally aired on the Fox network in the United States on January 5, 1997. In the episode, Homer eats several Guatemalan insanity peppers and hallucinates, causing him to go on a mysterious voyage. Following this, he questions his relationship with Marge and goes on a journey to find his soulmate.

"El Viaje Misterioso de Nuestro Jomer (The Mysterious Voyage of Homer)" was written by Ken Keeler and directed by Jim Reardon. The episode explores themes of marriage, community and alcohol use. Homer's voyage features surreal animation to depict the elaborate hallucination. The episode guest stars Johnny Cash as the "Space Coyote".

This episode was loosely adapted as the plot of the Simpsons level pack for the video game Lego Dimensions.

After a series of distractions from Marge, Homer suddenly smells out the annual chili cook-off. Marge admits that she was trying to keep Homer from attending because of his drunken antics at the previous year's event, so she only allows Homer to go on the condition that he does not drink any beer. At the cook-off, Homer demonstrates an extraordinary ability to withstand hot foods, until he fails against Chief Wiggum's chili which burns his tongue. Sobbing about his humiliation, he drinks several cups of water.
