He's talking about how on a biological level, capsaicin (spicy ahhhhh chemical) triggers the thermal receptors in our tongues, meaning that it makes your brain think your tongue is on fire. Therefore, by liking spicy food and willingly setting your tongue ablaze and feeling heat pain, you are a masochist.
Spice is literally a trigger response of pain. It definitely has a masochistic quality to it. And I proudly represent it since I love spice.
extreme spice maybe
sometimes there are some foods that you’d just have a better experience eating if there was a bit of a kick to it
I love spicyyy spicyy. Doo doo doo
fr though, how can you not want to eat spicy food like I need that excitement to eating bro. I dont want some bland ahh shitttt
I'm sorry for your loss. I've been to Thailand and I love the coconuts and durian there. Coconut milk also goes great with rice and the desserts in Bangkok are simply lovely. If you deem such foods as "unedible", I have nothing more to say than sorry for your loss.
Hello guys, I would like to put it this way: Spicy is not flavor, it is the triggering of thermal receptors in our mouths. Enjoying spicy food is akin to enjoying a fire in your mouth. Fire is painful, therefore if you like spicy food you like pain.
Riddle me this batman, if spicy food is soooo painful why do I feel nothing when I eat moderately spicy foods!?!?!
As the agent Deadlock would say, "Sensor destroyed". Your heat receptors are cooked.
TBH, I compare the way you should be eating spicy foods to working out, your muscles/nerves are gonna be sore until they adjust to the new conditions you are putting them under, in which case you will have an increased tolerance.
Spice enhances the flavor, but it needs to be at a level you can handle. If you eat food that's too spicy, it will pretty much ruin the dish.
but it tastes good, maybe you dont have to burn your tongue and throat and make your ass have nuclear diarrhea but adding a little spicyness to food is delightful
why do people drink alcohol?
or to put it to a tee for comparison, why do Italians love wine so much? while Italians love wine for the exquisite and rich taste, addiction is a huge part, much like spicy food is to many other cultures (also including your culture, especially near Calabria, where, cmiiw, you guys use a lot of peppers there, and even pepper jams).
depends. the ultra spicy genetically modified blah blah. then sure but normal spice? its not even painful its just numbing. plus as a chinese ur self u do like numbing spice right?
Some people seem to not understand the difference between spice and spicy flavor. And actually I do think spicy(too hot) food is trash like that balduk noodles spicy ones. It's literally just heat no flavor at all. Spicy(chilli flavor) is good only in moderate amount.
but it gotta be good type of spicy flavor. I love spicy but find the taste of wasabi quite nasty
I guess spice is an acquired taste. I hated wasabi until recently, after I started eating more JP cuisine; I still hate the jalapeño-type spice and I'm trying to get used to it so I can handle more of the stuff my Mexican friends give me, especially since I'm literally in Southern California, right above Baja Cali 😭
nope, it is! contrary to popular belief, capsaicin isn't the only chemical that contributes to spicyness.
isothiocyanates are the primary component in wasabi that makes the "sting" and the "spicyness" radiate throughout your nose/mouth.
hope this helped
mm then maybe the strong flavor why it feels hot, either way I just hate it. For some reason it tastes a bit minty to me
