DaftyduxWhat is something you dont care to understand or "get"?
davidgroSpicy food.
I can’t comprehend how individuals or entire cultures choose to just deal with the pain until they build a tolerance.
Sure it probably made sense when the choice was to starve or to eat something that hurts (even a little), but as soon as non-painful food was available, why continue with the kind containing “Don’t eat me!” chemicals?
You don’t dive into the deep end of pain. You start with midline uncomfortable and work your way up.
Why do you season things you cook? It’s delicious.
I don’t use seasonings that hurt. And literally can’t imagine a flavor so good it would be worth that.
Everything I’ve had with even the slightest amount of capsaicin is something I thought would be much better without it. In extreme cases I can’t even taste the normal flavors the food would have because the pain is a stronger sensation.
Even a mild Jalepeno?
