I eat anything. I have no allergies, and I'm open to all sorts of interesting and exotic foods. I absolutely love spicy foods though, spicier the better.
I know so many people who cringe at the things I eat, it's almost hilarious. I can take entire peppers and other spicy items without even flinching, but always love the spicy dishes that can be prepared with them. I'm a huge fan of mexican and indian cuisine, mainly because of the spicy factor.

I think in my country Indonesia, many people would prefer to eat spicy food. I myself has been a fan of spicy food since elementary school... Can you believe that? I just can't live without chillies. But now I have to start reducing the spicy taste in my food, because my doctor said that I'm having a kind of stomach problem because of that... Lately when eating spicy foods I will likely to have stomachache.. I guess we all should consider not too eat much spicy food for our health sake. It's ruining our stomach really...

YUM for me. But only certain spicy foods I will eat. I will not eat something just because it is spicy. But my favorite food flavor has to be a mix between sour and salty, and again there are food I will not eat in this category either. Anyways, when I was growing up, I practically ate spicy snacks like Hot Cheetoes like a garbage dispenser. I don't like spicy candy though, because to me candy should either be sweet, sour, or a combination of both. I also like jalapenos but only with cheese and nachos, or in a sandwich with meat. I am also fond of beef and chicken curry as well.

I love spicy food. I love to eat Thai food and get it super spicy. i like 5-Alarm chili, and I have a little dab of wasabi with all of my sushi. One thing I do not like is when some people make their foods so spicy that you can't even taste the food for the heat.

Hi Natara. Definitely a yum for me. I like to eat food that are spicy, it enhance more my appetite. My boyfriend and I like to eat restaurants with spicy delicacy. When he cooks our food, he always put chili on it since he knows that we both like it best that way.

spicy is definitely a YUM for me :) i also like curry! but i guess it depends on the level of spiciness! i can take mild to medium spicy but definitely not fear factor type spicy! haha :) i also like sour food. As for sweet food, i would like to keep that taste for desserts only. a sweet viand would be really weird!
