I want to like spicy food. I really, really do. But my body reacts to violently! I start sweating profusely (hello, sweat mustache!), my tongue literally burns like it is on fire, my eyes start to water.... It's miserable! Physically painful.
I just got some Avocado Tomatillo salsa from Costco... it says "medium" on the packaging, but I was coughing and gagging and sweating from the spice. I WANTED TO LIKE IT SO BAD because the flavor was great, but I just couldn't do it.
Am I totally lame? Who else is a spice weenie? How much spice can you tolerate?
