general

I don't think mustard seed, or horseradish/wasabi are "spicy"

Yeah, I can agree with that

They’re just really strong

I mean, they can be. But it's not the type of spice that'll ever fuck with your gut

I think that liking spicy food is scientifically similar to liking horror films

I suppose

Some people get the dopamine hits to things that should be unpleasant

I love horror movies

I do not love hot food

The problem is, a lot of hot peppers taste terrible we're lucky so many of the popular peppers taste good

It's not so much luck as it is breeding/engineering

All the cheap sauces, that just want to advertise how hot they are, use cheap shitty tasting peppers

This is correct

lot of restaurants too

home made pepper sauces, are shit 90% of the time

I’ve never had good really hot wings from a restaurant

i used to be huge on spicy stuff but then my european tongue decided to grow out of that

They always taste like shit

Just there for the novelty

There's a mexican place near me, with 30+ hot sauces, all home made or locally sourced or something

I've had some good wings recently

I've yet to find a good one, that's not a simple jalapeno or habanero sauce

Well

Those are the best peppers

So I’m not that surprised

there are a lot of good peppers, it's just down to breeding, like Gent said

the good ones cost a lot though, disproportionately

I want to try and make one of those proper chilis, where they have the perfect variety of peppers, roasted and pureed, added at just the right time

I think jalapeños might be my favorite pepper tbh

They’re barely hot and taste great

Not that I have had a wide range of peppers

Shishitos are decent, hardly any spice

That has the word shit in it twice basically

excellent observation

Good observation

okay observation

I really like spicy food, so most of the ones I go for are thai chillis of some variety

Bet that's not the only thai thing you like

I've been trying to grow some Carolina reapers too, becasue fuck paying to have them shipped from some asshole somewhere

and lol Gent

ha

that's a trap joke

i get it

you cant say that

you're an adult

act like one

it's ok i'm tired

hi tired

I was thinking kids

but traps work too
