I am the sort of person who could eat any sort of food during any part of the year, but some people say they would not eat some food during a certain season. My friend is a good example of this because she will not eat curry or any other spicy food during the summer. She says these foods make her feel too hot. I always thought that spicy food helped to cool your body down. But what do I know?

I am the same, if I am in the mood for a certain food I will eat it whatever the season. I have been known to eat a salad in the middle of winter and this would be a no no for some people.

@lazydaizee absolutely! I could eat Indonesian hot meatballs soup i and chili in summer, which is it's kinda big deal for some people in Finland.

@Phebri Do you live in Finland? Hot meatballs soup sounds nice do you make it from scratch or does it come in a tin?

And you are right, in the hot countries they always consume hot food to lower the body temperature. The reason is simple, spicy food makes you sweat, sweating cools off the skin, that causes the body temperature to go down.

@lazydaizee While it's fine for me to have spicy food on a hot day, I cannot stand a hot drink.
