A little bit of heat with the right flavors can be nice. Almost everyone likes some degree of spice, even if it's black pepper or yellow mustard. And it's one of those things that you build up a tolerance to if you eat enough, meaning you need more for the same satisfaction.

>why the fuck do people eat super spicy food? whats the joy of having to chug a cup of milk every minute?
Sometimes people chug a beer, or a sugary iced coffee with cream.

Why? I think it is enjoyment of the tingle, that sweat and vasodilation, running of the sinuses, and euphoric feeling after the endorphin rush. I think there is a level of ignorance about delicious chili flavor and extracts of oils that burn with little to no flavor. Also there is ignorance about not taking care of your GI and overdoing sour and hot things too often, but chilies are digestible, it's black pepper that is not. Idiots do a challenge for fun, possibly collect sauces like an addict hoarder, and it's a phase they grow out of once they stop being stupid or cook with more flavor or get more money to not have the same crap day after day.
Also, don't forget that smokers and people who are depressed have a palate that is basically numb. Old people lose a lot of tastebud activity too. It's why some people might oversalt food. It simply isn't tasting good enough yet.

People I know like to poke fun of me for not liking extremely spicy food because they think I can't handle it. I can handle it just fine but food is just not delicious when all you can taste is spiciness, it should be part of the flavor and not the only flavor. I do have a soft spot for wasabi/horseradish though since at least the spiciness goes away quickly and I can taste other things again.

>> No.12659350

If you consistently eat spicy foods you build a tolerance of the sensation and are now enjoying the flavors. This is excluding people who only care about eating the hottest peppers possible raw through their nose, which is entirely different. It's normally just that food which may be "extremely spicy" to you is not spicy at all to other people, who eat it for the flavor.

Going to assume you're replying to me. I know you can build tolerance but I'm not going to start chugging spicy food just to get accustomed to super spicy foods. I enjoy the heat, I just don't consider it the main attraction

It isn't spicy to them, they don't eat it for spice but the flavors of the ingredients that also contain capsaicin. If you can't tolerate the capsaicin you won't taste those flavors either

There’s actually been a lot of reaearch confirming that shithole countries with higher risks of pathogenic infection use more spices in their food. Chilli and acid in particular are very useful for this purpose.
The increasing popularity of spicy among white american males is probably due to them using it as a signal of their masculinity, since it’s now un-PC to signal it in traditional ways. This is a hypothesis i have, so please try to debunk it.

Minorities (blacks, Mexicans, Indians) like spice because they have unrefined taste buds. White people don't like overwhelming spice because they have very refined taste buds that pick up subtleties in milder flavors. Spiciness is for those who cannot into the wide range of spices available.

Some people just have better taste buds, sorry!

You build up an immunity to capsaicin super-quickly. People who like spicy foods and actually eat them on a routine basis don't feel like they're in severe pain every time they eat.
It's just a nice stimulating feeling. A little bit of stress can feel rewarding e.g. People who exercise similarly don't feel like they're in severe pain every time they do it or else very few people ever would.
Or to use a lazier person example, would you rather play a video game that's incredibly easy and offers no resistance to progress and no threat to your character's life? Or one that challenges you and makes you put some work in to succeed at?
Can help with digestion too. When all you eat is bland food it can just sit there and give you bad bloating / constipation. Spiciness stimulates the GI tract and helps move things along so you don't have to spend your weekend doubled over in abdominal pain and getting more and more stressed out that you'll be going into work Monday morning having had very little rest or relaxation thanks to your treacherously immobile intestines.

Yeah, we've all heard about the "brown people used spiciness to cover up rancid food" trivia by now. Obviously that's not the only attraction to spiciness and it's a pretty dumb thing to base your eating decisions on.

The best metaphor I've heard for it is Rollercoasters.

Rollercoasters give you a thrill that typically cannot kill you. Now, if you've never ridden a rollercoaster, or are otherwise not used to them, starting out with a crazy intense one will just make you feel sick and throw up.

But if you work your way up, you can get larger and larger thrills without ever truly risking your safety.

Spicy food triggers dopamine. On top of that, there is some genuine flavor to be had in many peppers, so it's got a number of benefits.
