I am not sure how else to word it.
But I have a friend that's Korean, she only eats spicy foods. My company has a sales rep in India that every time he comes here he insists restaurants with spicy food. I could go on. But that's two people directly in my life that seems to only enjoy food that I personally dont see the enjoyment in eating. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

The cuisines in question developed to favour strong spices to mask the taste of spoiled food (not necessarily dangerously spoiled, but spoiled enough to taste unpleasant), and that preference has stuck despite the invention and ready availability of refrigeration because it's the sort of flavour everyone's come to expect.

They probably have different tolerances, tastes and levels of pleasure received from the spice.
I remember something on PBS explaining that people that taste food more and have more taste buds, typically are more sensitive to spice. My girlfriend loves the burn, I can sometimes enjoy it. When it's not too much though and within my level, I get it. It's not my thing though. --- Warning: Sometimes biased https://imgur.com/V0x5fw8 https://imgur.com/IOovUge https://imgur.com/zw7bqPH ...

Idk I dated a Mexican girl and her family wouldnt eat a bag of habanero chips they bought because they were too hot. Meanwhile I liked them. Both girls from Japan Ive dated eat spicy foods. I think its really just personal preference.

I love spicy food. Maybe it's a masochistic thing because I like the burn but spicy foods just seem to often have more flavor to me as well. I love mexican and a lot of asian cuisine for that reason

It's what you were raised with. Many cultures have much more flavorful (and spicy) food than Western cuisines.

I keep telling my sister this and she refuses to let her daughter eat anything remotely spicy. Its ridiculous. Like shes gets irate if I offer my niece a BBQ chip. If you let them eat it when theyre younger they will get used to it.

I think the physical pain of it helps you experience it more. Like bdsm. And barbed capsaicin are like nipple clamps for your tongue.

I don't understand cultures that don't eat spicy food. So depressing.
I'd lose my mind if I had to eat all milquetoast all the time. I think BDSM is kind of a good comparison. Yeah, spicy food hurts... But it hurts so GOOD. And I genuinely like the flavor of things like chilis. --- `Twas brillig, and the slithy toves did gyre and gimble in the wabe; All mimsy were the borogoves, and the mome raths outgrabe. ...

Aging is actually starting to catch up with me and I'm starting to suffer a little from spicy food sometimes... But it's still too yummy to resist.

My dad let me think a Jalapeo slice was a pickle slice when I was a kid. I move hated spicy foods ever since. Both the taste and the spiciness.

Spicy food helps boost immune system, it also releases endorphins and sensitizes the tastebuds to enhance other flavors of the dish you are eating. The only drawback is it causes pain. But no pain no gain if you ask me! *proceeds to splash ghost pepper hotsauce on pizza slice*

Mmm I'm in love with smoked ghost pepper powder. Mix some of that in any salsa and you have a flavor explosion.

Moonjay posted...Mmm I'm in love with smoked ghost pepper powder. Mix some of that in any salsa and you have a flavor explosion. Yep, we got it from Amazon. I don't like a lot of smoked stuff because it's too heavy and tastes like ash tray, but that stuff is just right. Thinking about it, I definitely do think heat increases other flavors. Like at Indian restaurants... The very hot curry from the menu and the wussified curry in the buffet are made with all the same spices other than the chilis... And the mild stuff is pretty bland to me. Aside from the chilis having their own flavor, the other flavors get stronger and last longer on my tongue. --- `Twas brillig, and the slithy toves did gyre and gimble in the wabe; All mimsy were the borogoves, and the mome raths outgrabe. ...
