do you like your food spicy?

MyBrownEyedBoy replied: Oh HECK no! I hate spicy food. I used to put ketchup on tacos when I was younger because I wanted to be like my dad, but couldn't stand salsa. Even the mild kind. I like salsas now, provided they are mild. Even the mediums are too strong for me sometimes. I like to make my own. I can't wait for summer and fresh veggies.

My3LilMonkeys replied: I used to love spicy food...then when I was PG with Brooke I ate hot wings and got soooo sick and now I can't tolerate it. I like more of a mediumish hot.

Calimama replied: I like somewhat hot. Eventually it gets to the point where you can taste the food because of the fire.

kimberley replied: looooooove spicy food!

MyBlueEyedBabies replied: I LOVE spicey. Whenever I cook Katy requests "not burning food" She's a goober

HuskerMom replied: I don't like it too spicy but I usually spice up meals for DH.

msoulz replied: NO way, I'm a totally dull eater. I hate it when I can't taste my food because my mouth is burning.

I am a spice whimp, for sure!

MotherForever2043 replied: I don't like my food to hot nor too mild. Just in the middle but right now I can't stand anything spicy.

Nina J replied: I don't like spicy food.

luvmykids replied: Hot and spicy, especially if it's Mexican food. Otherwise, around here, whats the point?

stella6979 replied: The hotter the better for me! I think I should have been born Mexican. LOL!

MyBrownEyedBoy replied:
Thank you. I hated thinking I was the only wimp.

Crystalina replied: I have jalepeno sauce running through my blood. I love it. I think spicey food is a pleasant torture (if that makes sense ). It only burns for a few minutes. It's like a tatto. It hurts a little but you gotta have it.

A&A'smommy replied: OMG I LOVE chili ESPECIALLY vegg. chili YUMMY... I'm like things hott and spicy but I can't eat it too hott because it messes my stomach up. But YUMMY

msoulz replied:
Actually I prefer to think of it as discerning . . .

TLCDad replied: MMMM, Spicey. Yeppers, I like those peppers!

Boo&BugsMom replied: This is one thing hubby and I are totally opposite on. I don't like spicy stuff at all and he loves things that make his mouth feel like it's on fire.

DansMom replied: I used to like foods very, very hot. Now I want to taste the subtler flavors in complex dishes, and don't want an excess of any one spice. I can still tolerate plenty of heat, but don't prefer it.

However, I do like the immediate aftereffects of eating really spicy hot food---the tingling scalp, the brighter colors.

Mommy2BAK replied: Not for me! Thats for sure, I start sweating if I eat just one of those hot cheetos!

dreneef replied: I absolutely love spicy food! My husband hates it, so when I add spices, I have to seperate the cooking for him.
