Spicy food never had an effect on my stomach until one day in my late 30’s. Now there’s a fuzzy threshold where I’m OK, but there’s a limit. A whole serving of my favorite bulgogi is always too much.

Ill have issues with super super spicy peppers or hot sauce. But generally I have to actively seek out something that spicy. Just some ghost pepper hot sauce won’t do much to my system even if its spicy going down. Carolina reapers will do it.
Growing my own scorpion peppers this year. Never had a truly fresh one before.

Doesn’t bother me either. I honestly didn’t know spicy food making people shit was a thing. I always thought it was shitty food that caused spicy diarrhea.

It’s because you don’t drink as much as other people. People who chug a ton of of water or whatever after they’ve eaten something spicy are giving themselves diarrhea.
Sauce: a Taiwanese lady.

I don’t suffer the trots from spicy food. If I make a Thai Curry I will put 5 Thai chillies in it. Could just be what my body is used to, but could also be people who struggle might be combo of not used to spice in their system and not eating a lot of veg or iber then have an Indian lentil meal or something?

So like … Can you keep eating even more spicy food until it does affect your suggestion and then let us know how spicy you had to go?

I’ve had ghost pepper curry and it still didn’t affect my gut despite me being a teary red mess

I think the next step is to eat something even hotter and in larger amounts, if you want to find out. Otherwise just count yourself lucky!

Even tabasco turns my arse into a fire dragon after its done burning my mouth, so count your blessings!

I guess I’m a spice boss because I can eat whatever I want, with nothing but spicy-ass occasionally.

- How old are you
- What kind of spice are you talking about?

Easiest fix: on’t be white.
Second easiest fix: hang out around non white people.
But seriously though all my white friends who never grew up eating spicy food had problems with spicy food at first. After years of being around people who eat spicy food they’ve gotten used to it.

My wife’s family is full hispanic, and most of them can’t approach the heat levels that I, a white guy, can take. I could always take spicy food, and no, it didn’t take years of being around it to build tolerance. Some people can just take high heat.
Such a weird take basing spice tolerance on race.
