34. Some can handle hot foods, some can't. It says nothing about that person's character.

My intro to hot foods was in Eritrea. I immediately fell in love with the spices. I did carry tabasco with me because Army chow was bland. They have a convenient small bottle that fits in the pocket.

I do like Habanero, but my wife can't handle it, so when I cook I use Jalapeno and crushed red peppers. I will slip in a Thai pepper when I can. I have no issues with others spice choices.

I like my chicken curry hot.

When I had allergies, I carried tabasco or crushed red peppers for temporary relief.
