People who are fans of spicy food, please explain the appeal. Why would you want something that causes you physical pain and masks the flavour of everything else in the food?

The heat is not pain at a certain tolerance/threshold. It just makes your mouth numb and feel good. I like growing really spicy peppers also. They taste nice.

>> No.19311330

>>19311322
The heat only masks the flavor of everything else if you're a weak and pathetic spicelet. Remember the spicier the food you can tolerate the manlier of a man you are.

>> No.19311339

Most people who "like spicy food" or regularly use hot sauce are not eating shit that causes them physical pain. It's not some tictok internet challenge thing - which is obviously where you're getting your ideas from. It also doesn't "mask" the flavor of the food. Do you not use salt and pepper when you cook? Or eat a roast with some gravy or a pan sauce? Do you not dip fries in any kind of sauce? Or squeeze some lemon over fish? It's the same thing.

>Why would you want something that causes you physical pain and masks the flavour of everything else in the food?
After you have been eating for a while it stops hurting and masking taste, and begin to taste really fucking amazing and improving the flavor of everything it is added to.

You just need to build up resistance first, start with some mild sauce and work your way up the scoville ladder!

People who spell the word flavour correctly don't have access to that kind of pic. Nice try though.

Serious answer: saturation of flavour is a thing, not just for spicy food. Food in the '80s was so salty you just kept drinking all day.

Don't listen to anyone who tries to claim that spicy shit is a manly thing, or something you just have to build a tolerance for. Most of it is genetic, and the part that is learned happens early in life. If you didn't grow up eating spicy food you're never going to build up that much more of a tolerance than you already have. People who suffer through spicy shit they can't handle because they think it makes them tough are retarded.

It doesn't "mask" the flavour of whatever it is on (unless you're spraying military grade pepper spray directly on your food). It adds flavour. Hot sauces are made from complex mixtures of ingredients and so the right sauce adds both additional flavour - but also the sensation of "heat" itself, which is something that certain human beings like.

If you don't like it, man up and stop being a soyboy.

I like hot sauces because they're concentrated flavor and have a good kick to them. It's vinegar+salt and fruity peppers, sometimes with other stuff added in like pineapple and mango that compliments it. The actual heat you have to tailor to what you find pleasant, but usually if you eat peppers regularly, you grow a tolerance and can eat spicier things, which just open up more flavor options.

I won't eat fresh hot peppers raw like some people do though.

It's a condiment. Why do you eat ketchup with french fries? The flavor of the french fry is accentuated by the ketchup.

And to your other point, the pain begins to feel good, and it allows you to enjoy your food more. Eventually you keep chasing that spice level where you're somewhat struggling to eat it but it's still edible and before you know it you're eating extremely spicy food without blinking an eye.

Personally FOR ME, its a masochist feeling and the sensation that you feel
Some hot sauces stab you with the sensation quickly while others build up to it and then it hits
And in my experience "Spiciness" add more to a meal than take away from it
It happened to over a dozen times that im testing (For example) a tomato sauce that im making for a pasta and im just like "This feels too plain" so I might add in some pepper and garlic, and then im like "That's nice" and when I serve to others, its not like they complain, and in fact, some even gave me kudos for the spice.

This isn't true at all. I'm a typical white guy and didn't eat anything spicier than a pickled jalapeno growing up since my parents don't like spicy food. However today I can eat food significantly spicier than even my friends from China can handle. We recently went to a chongqing hot pot and ordered their chongqing broth, but the waitress said the kitchen added something like 3x the amount of hot oil for us. I greedily ate from that pot while two of my friends, from China, cried while tasting it
Point, you can build a tolerance. And the appeal is that it actually gets you kind of high
