i really adore hot and spicy dishes. no matter what it is, beef, pork , chicken or fish, salad or pastas, it would be aplus if it is hot and spicy. i think its because i grew up in a family wherein our dishes are traditionally hot and spicy. when a dish is hot and spicy, it works as an appetizer for me. i tend to eat more when the dish is hot and spicy. what about you? are you also a fan of hot and spicy foods? if not, why so?

Both of them. Aurveda tells that in dependence of your constitution you must eat a definite food. And if you for example prefer too spicy one...this means that your body completes his lack of something else. And if you have excess of spicy material, this has influence to your emotional and mental health too.

hi jlara. Oh yes I love hot and spicy. It's true. It does stimulate the taste buds ;). When I don't have appetite to eat, I go looking for pepper and put it in whatever dish I am about to eat. The small pepper is by far the hottest I've ever tasted. :) Thanks. Good day!

Hhmm!!! I love spicy food! I've lived for 5 years in a part of my country where people usually eat spicy food everyday, and I got used to it. I think everything tastes better when it's spicy. One of my favorite dishes is chili, and I have a feeling I'd love any other Mexican dish, although I've never tried anything else.

Hhmm... I'm from Brazil. I live in São Paulo, but I used to live in Salvador, a city in the northeast of the country. Their culture is very influenced by African culture, including food. Sure they added a Brazilian touch in their food too, and it works really fine! I really don't know how to explain to you what type of dishes they have there, but they're almost all spicy and REALLY good. He in SP people like Italian food very much, but we can find about everything.

I dont eat too much of hot and spicy, but i like a little ht and spicy. it makes the real taste of food, otherwise one dont understands, what he/she is eating. if the food is not of my taste i make it again adding some spices, little chilly and salt and cook again, if water is needed for more cooking i do add that too. then it gives me my perfect taste. I am not allowed to eat lot of hot and spicy food bcause my heart starts burning and then i feel acidic inside my stomach. so better to be inside the boundary, then to eat one day and suffer one month after that.
