Do you like spicy food?

If you are asking about Spicy Food, Indonesians are Spicy Lovers.. In my family, we can not eat without Sambal and Cabai! The funny thing is, we can eat only Rice and Sambal or Cabai...

I like korean spicy food particularly the famous kimchi and dokbukki.

I noticed that some other people like Cholula hot sauce. My Dad likes the regular stuff, but the other day I picked up 2 different types of Cholula. One is a green made with Jalapeños and Poblanos, and that is pretty hot to my palette. The other is a Chipotle, and it's not hot at all but has a good smokey flavor.

Yes, but it don't like me.............sigh..........occasionally I will splurge a wee bit, and then spend two days regretting my giving in to it's wanton temptation.

Oh oh I know that but haven't tried. My roomies have it in the fridge. xD I'm not a fan of spicy food. And I'm starting to think, I'm the only in Singapore who doesn't. Lol. Everyone's spicy this, spicy that.

I have a friend who loves catsup and she's so funny because she says she can't stop eating it even though it's so spicy it burns her mouth! And I'm like, huh? That's not spicy! But to her it is.

I adore spicy food.

I don't really like spicy food, or at least the version of spice that everyone else has like has. I don't mind a little pepper or maybe a little spice on orange chicken now, but for ages I never had spice of any sort as much as I could avoid it.

I've never understood the appeal of spicy food. Why would I want to eat something that is going to burn my mouth? It's masochistic

Spicy foods just taste better to me. I'm currently working my way down the top ten hottest ramen list. After years of eating spicy, it's pretty difficult to make things too spicy for me.

Eating should not be a painful experience. I want to enjoy my food. That's just unnecessary. I liken it to putting broken glass in your socks.

glockenspiel just glockenspiel

I thought that was a musical instrument!

Never tried it, unlikely to either lol

I,m not keen on really hot Spicy food these days. I like Spicy chicken Wings,at present. Some time ago I found an instant antidote for a burning mouth when eating Curry. Take a spoonful or cube of Sugar. It is an instant Antidote. Forget jugs of Water. Try it next time you have an Indian meal. It probably works with any hot spicy food.

Sometimes I have no desire for anything even remotely spicy...

But when I do...

(Although, if it's a serious craving, I may have to eat half the jar, or find something hotter.)
(Like lip-blistering homegrown hot banana peppers. Those work beautifully.)

Do like. Sriracha on everything, please.

I love tabasco sauce! I put it on lots of things, especially in chili (now I'm wanting some chili ha!). Might go fix me a bowl and perhaps throw in a few jalapenos!

I can't handle much in the way of spicy food. There is a threshold I get to where anything beyond is just pure heat and is unpleasant to me. I don't like the burn going in and I like to stay away from it burning on the way out too.
