Will they give you heartburn or hurt your stomach? Do you love spicy foods? I do, I love Jalapenos and other spicy foods, it just adds really good flavor to the food.

I love to eat spicy foods. I'm immune to heartburn and they don't seem to hurt my stomach. I find most foods bland without any spice added to them and I try to add at least ground pepper whenever possible, Mac & Cheese with pepper is fantastic. Jalapenos are a must on the list of toppings whenever I order pizza.

I love to eat spicy foods, especially Mexican dishes. However my digestive system doesn't. Any spicy foods I eat just go right through me and I am ill for about a eek after eating it.

I love spicey food! I love Thai food and Indian food. I don't like jalepenos as much as I like Thai peppers, but they are all right too. I just take heartburn medicine if I am going to load up on spicy stuff.

OH!!.. the spicer the food is the better it taste. I find that if the food is not hot (as in spicy hot), it quite tasteless. I will eat them though, but not much. I just love to eat noodle with a lot of small hot chilli. It kills my tongue but I just love them. Unfortunely, nowadays I have to restrict eating them cause of my stomach ulcer.

and how! I especially like habenero sauce, but I just finished another gallon jug of pickled jalepeno slices. Going to have to get some more soon. The discount store I go to has the gallon jars for less than $3 each. We also like the hot cherry peppers, they are really good on salads and sandwiches. I will put them in the food grinder and chop them up into a relish for on the sandwiches, makes a great spread. hot things rarely burn my tongue, but they do on occasion burn my ears and my lips oh yeah, and my eyes when I rub them...dont you hate that!?! sometimes I will get heartburn but not usually. I dont think a day goes by that I do not eat some sort of hot pepper or sauce. The real burn comes in the morning though...owie "come on ice cream"

I love spicy food too, if chili or hot salsa is available, you bet I'll have it in my food. And yes, the reflux bothers me sometimes but I still can't get away from spicy food. If you ever go to PF Chang's (chinese resto), they have a really spicy, bordering on flaming hot dish that I always order. Everytime I do, the waiters try to warn me how hot it is. Ain't that funny? I have to always bring my Zantac though just in case.

I love to eat spicy foods all the time. I am not able to always do this because of the kids and the ole hubby. I grew up eating all the hot and spicy foods that my mom and grandparents would make.

I like food that's a little spicy. I don't like when it's too hot and burns my mouth and makes my eyes and nose run.

I love spicy food!! The hotter the better!! I usually just add hot sauce to my food since I have kids I can't really make thing spicy and expect them to eat it. Sometimes they do eat chips with salsa though and thay just surprises me because I get the HOTT salsa!!

I like spicy food. I can't wait until I can have it again. I've been wanting hooters wings but they wouldn't be the same unless they have that kick to them. Yum I can't wait.
