Hot and spicy poll! - How much of a man are you?

Simple Cholula, tasty, mild spice and big fan of the wooden top.

I love spicy food. I'd rather give up booze than spice. But as someone previously said, the spiciness needs flavor, not just heat and that nasty vinegar-y taste. The spicy Korean ramen with the Chicken on the cover is also great. If I'm feeling lazy and don't want to make my own hot sauces or salsa, I tend to buy these:

All of these are great. Throw in Mrs. Renfro’s ghost pepper salsa, and you’ve got a real solid list of fairly easy to find things that are both hot and taste great.

I am a fiend for hot sauces and salsas. One of my favorite things to do is take something from extract, like Satan’s Blood, and a drop or three into a katsu sauce. It takes the edge off of the extreme heat that you’d immediately feel on your lips and tongue, and leaves you with this nice lingering burn toward the back of your throat.

I subscribe to the Heatonist boxes and I have been fairly disappointed over the recent year. All of the “hotter” sauces have tasted really sugary with a ton of heat.

I love spicy food so much but it's really hard to do right. The heat has to have flavour and character in order to be enjoyable.

 

[Timmy Jolsen]

I grew up in a family that ate spicy food, and restaurants here generally underdo the spices, so I generally order the spiciest the place has if I want a spicy dish.

 

[𝕺𝖑' 𝕯𝖎𝖗𝖙𝖞 𝕱𝖆𝖙𝖘𝖔]

I have a lot of different spicy condiments/peppers/sauces. I don't like American style hot sauces as much as I like things like chili oil, shichimi, gochujang, harissa, etc

I don't really care about spice levels as much as I do about the actual flavor of the food and frankly i find people who get into a dick measuring contest about it annoying.

 

[Whatthefuck]

I'm not a man and I'm as caucasian as they come, but when I order Thai I order Thai spicy. The chef at my local walked out to ask me if I was serious, you know, silly white girl. I told him to make me cry tears of joy. He did, I did and I woulnd't have it any other way.

 

[Hongourable Madisha]

ypipo be like

Common misconception about us Caucasoids. There are in fact two types of white people: the kind that won't eat any flavour at all, and the kind that loudly order "DA 'OTTEST FING ON DA MENU" as a flex and enjoy it. That's why every British curry house sells both korma and vindaloo. I'm one of the second kind. Why else would our ancestors invade so much of South Asia and take all the spices? We love them!

 

[NyQuilninja]

Although I've eaten some dangerously spicy peppers. Carolina reapers come to mind so does the scorpion peepers.
However, I find the almost tropical flavor of the peach habanero and orange varieties to impart a wonderful flavor in heat to food, everything else seems to overpower and make it too hot thus removing a lot of the flavor

 

[The Feline Solution]

Depends on the food, really. If i'm cooking Thai or Korean i do it very hot, otherwise i don't go out of my way to eat hot. These ultra-hot, gut-melting hot sauces are a meme, the hotness overpowers all other flavors in most cases, not a fan. I'm a far bigger fan of greasiness than hotness, i am a snob when it comes to olive oil for example. Indians do extreme hotness plus good flavours the best i think, pretty much the only good thing i can say about them.

Only a nigger would confuse spicy food with tasty food.

From the odd aunty i watch cooking on Youtube i tend to think niggers overspice their food in general. If you put a pound of dried oregano on your meat you won't taste much else. Jamaican obsession with Allspice is bad too, that shit has a very strong and distinct flavour and the way they use it in marinades overpowers all other spices, except the scotch bonnet, which they IMO also use in too high quantities.

Southern blacks got some good shit, though, i'll never marinate my fried chicken without buttermilk ever again after i saw some mammy do it and trying it out myself.

 

[XYZpdq Jr.]

that Fire Wok cup ramen is surprisingly hot for a mass-produced USA thing at normal grocery stores
how spicy I go depends on how much I'm drinking and smoking at that particular moment
rap snacks can get more spicy than you'd expect

the hottest memory I have is some Tamil home cooking chicken somethingorother, but I was only like, ten or so and I suspect it was more I was inexperienced with super spicy stuff, but still that's literally the Indian subcontinent so it really might have been that heavy

I don't really go for THE FUCKING SPICY thing, those are usually gimmick shit that sucks, but I don't mind turning things up for my own cooking, and don't have any particular fear about random food out

one time there was an Indian joint next to the nerd con I was at, they had all you can eat/drink curry/champagne buffet
shit was soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo cash

cholula is a lot more of a sauce than a hot, but it's good shit

 

[ReasonablyRetarded]

Spice needs to be enhancing the flavor, add something to it.
Not utterly dominate it and ruin any sense of joy or comfort.
So it just depends on how much you can handle I suppose.
I really don't get the retards that want the spiciest most asshole ruining garbage hotsauce over their food.

 

[Agent Abe Caprine]

My asshole has never been decimated by spicy food and I practically subsist on extra-hot peri-peri, I have no idea where the idea comes from.View attachment 4328133

I also have that shitty superpower. Only time I get the lava shits is when I've eaten pickled jalapenos or have the flu. I think I'm allergic to pickled jalapenos. No idea why.

I found the hottest Fire Wok to be pretty tame.
