I find it hard to understand how a potentially hazardous to health food item is even allowed.
What is this obcession with ever increasing level of spice in food, lately?
Because at some point all the flavour just goes away, replaced by a hefty dose of pain.
It can be fun to safely experience sensory extremes. Many people get an endorphin/dopamine rush from it.
Other than some gut irritation it's not a significant hazard. Like yeah keep it safely stored from sensitive people and pets also it's probably not the best road trip snack or whatever. Certainly less dangerous than alcohol, fireworks, cigarettes or texting while driving.
I can get sensory extremes by walking outside, right now. I'm good on that front.
It's clear I'm on the minority side here, no problem on that, but is it that weird to expect food to have flavour and not hurt me while I'm eating it? It seems reasonable.
I think the problem lies with calling things like the 1 chip challenge or "melt you wussy butthole" varieties of spicy challenges "food".
I mean I guess you ingest them, but that's kinda like calling magic mushrooms food or ipecac syrup food. They are things that you eat for a specific purpose that is not nourishment.
It's totally normal to like or not like spicy and i doubt anyone would judge you for that. I think your comment's wording is a bit reactive though.
Spice will give you an approximation of a "runner's high" without the tedious mucking about of exercise. There is, of course, an upper limit which too many products tip past.
There are too many bad taste jokes to be made on that.
Make the joke a bit spicier and the taste should disappear.
That is the problem.
Because it's fun. Live a little.
I do, thank you the concern. But self imposed torture is not something I enjoy. Nor recommend.
Don't kink shame, ffs.
self inflicted pain with no scars or prema damage, as long as it's below pepper spray.
Your point being?
Drag wants it to hurt
Hey, long time no see!
But no. It's food. Not torture.
speak for yourself, some of us are doing self harm.
Por que no los dos?
No. Plain and simple.
Well you can have normal levels of spice and drag will be force fed absurdly hot food that hurts to eat by drag's partner, and then we can all be happy
The pain others endure is no enjoyment for me, so I can only hope you surface from such experiences with no negative outcomes.
in the past i thought eating spicy food made me look cool and manly, but then i realised i'm missing out on the flavour of foods and understood i was being silly. so now i mostly stick to mild foods, with the occasional spicy food for varity's sake but only if i can actually taste the flavour of said food through the spice
but that's just me
I realize I'm a special case, but my nose is essentially non-functionalβI don't smell food. While my sense of taste is more sensitive than your average person, I suspect I still miss out on some kinds of flavour. I believe my impairment is why I am drawn towards strong tastes like cheeses or, indeed, extremely spicy food. They're the "only" flavours that I really experience strongly.
Ha! Never thought of that!
I'm very sensitive with smells, while my wife isn't.
Although I do like spicy food, I still want to be able to taste anything else than hot pain.
My wife though enjoys chilli chips, where I couldn't even stomach one of them.
Cases like yours are unfortunate and I understand and respect those. I'm a fan of spice myself. Just not to the point it hurts me. I put spice in food to enhance flavours, not to cover it with a dose of pain.
If you can find it, try portuguese goat cheese or Azores cheese, long cure. Very flavourful but incredibly intense.
