If you’re healthy, it is good for you. Speeds up your metabolism.

Capsaicin (active ingredient in all spices) is good for arthritis.

Not sure why but white people in general can’t take any amount of spice.

Partially a self fulfilling prophecy in the sense that they cant take it because they dont really eat it, and they dont eat it cause they cant take it. Once you start eating spicy food your tolerance increases and you can eat spicier foods and enjoy them

yeah, white people can’t eat street food either. dont know whats up with that

Unless I am forgetting something, spicy food does not exist in French and German food, and is very rare in Italy (save for arrabiata sauce but it isn’t common). Russian food also does not have it, except for some sauces from the Caucasus.

I also don’t recall much chili in North-African / Turkish / Lebanese / Persian foods.

My conclusion is that spicy food tends to be rather confined to South-East Asian and South-American food.

North African food absolutely has spice if you know what to ask for. Ethiopian food is eerily similar to Indian food. South East Asian spice is more ‘raw’ if that makes sense and South Asian / Sub-continental spice is more flavorsome.

The Paki/Afghan/Persian region has the best food in my opinion. They use the spice to give just the right amount of taste but even if you aren’t used to spice it won’t leave you uncomfortable

Most of us can afford to eat indoors.

Used to eat a lot of asian spicy but it was doing a number on my digestive tract. General health really improved after that - no more noxious gas. Spice is for taste, not to measure manliness.

Only a minority of white people find pleasure in explosive diarrhea.

Yet the spiciest food in Germany is currywurst. #correlationbreakdown

Sounds like something a sissy would say; man up and not like Adam Richman who cheated with all the lassi and rice…

Bon chon chicken. For those who love spicy fried chicken. It gets no better. The day after though, your butthole will be on fire.

I love spicy food, especially the proper Indian food spiciness where the hotness is only there as a subtle addition to the flavour at the front end and then it gradually builds up in the after taste. ring sting is only a minor inconvenience.

White people can eat street food most places. I could really go some pav bhaji right now,

Can totally handle the front end, woke up one day and wasn’t able to handle the conclusion. Must be an age thing.

I understand you’re talking about your ass exploding, but the actual level of “hotness” you able to handle has a lot to do with your age. Basically, as you get older your taste buds either die or become desensitized allowing you to eat spicier food without even realizing it.

This is true. But, the desensitization can be self inflicted, causing many to lose their palate and pouring that Franks Red Hot on errrrrything.

Russian food also does not have it

Is there any real, authentic russian food, aside from vodka and borsch? Thought everything was just garbage bc they couldn’t get anything bc of years of communism.

^Boiled bacon.

[birdman12345]

That doesn’t SOUND good. But I’ve heard that bacon and cabbage was the predecessor to corned beef and cabbage. Is it good?

Not sure but my brother got to go to the USSR back when it was cool (read: horrible) and was welcomed with a plate of boiled bacon. He’s pretty sure they were just messing with the ignorant Americans…but maybe not.
