Oooh, that makes a great discussion question! Why does everyone here like spicy food? I love spicy foods because they help regulate the body when the weather is hot or cold. I'm one of those people who are always feeling cold and a bit of the right spice can warm me up. There's also something almost addictive in those really spicy dishes that make your eyes water and your nose run. -- Alexandria M.C. " I'm not afraid to die. I'm not afraid to live.

I love spicy food for the taste, but I am also addicted to the endorphin rush. While everyone else is complaining that there lips (or even there whole face) are going to burn off, I kick back in my recliner, close my eyes, smile, and enjoy the smooth mellow ride on cloud 9.

Guest guest Posted June 5, 2004 Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 I'm not sure why (maybe it's my addictive behavior) but I know when... It was in 1969 and I was in Bangkok. I had no idea that Thai food was any different than any other 'oriental' food. WOW, was I ever surprised. I fell in love with hot and spicey foods right then and there.

I'm lucky that we have a lot of Hmong refugees moving to our area. It's easier to get good ingredients. A few have opened resturants too. Yum. Nothing like authentic stuff. -- Alexandria M.C.

Guest guest Posted June 5, 2004 Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 Many think that Thai food is the *best*! ;=) My dh and I didn't hit Thailand until the late 'seventies (was it really?) and we were blown away. At first, we looked at dishes with all that green bell-pepper/capsicum looking greenery in it and thought, well, it has to be mild. It wasn't. But it *was* delicious! After we came back I turned myself towards trying Thai food whenever I could find a way. Until then it had been all India and Honk Kong cooking. (Later we added Indonesian, Malaysian, Singaporean, etc.) Thai is a buzz!!!! *lol* (But of course, we still do all the others as well - confirmed eaters of asian food because, well, because it works so well with a vegetarian lifestyle ;=)) gf Feed me anything but make it spicy! , " Jim " <jdsears669> wrote: > I'm not sure why (maybe it's my addictive behavior) but I know when... > It was in 1969 and I was in Bangkok.
