Hi all, in my country almost every food we eat has chili in it, or even if it does not have chili in it, we usually add bottled chili sauce in it. Fast food restaurant such as McDonald's or KFC now even only give tomato sauce if we ask for it, if not they usually only give chili sauce. Since we used to eat spicy food, usually restaurant that attracts many foreign tourists will lessen the spiciness of the food. Eating spicy food of course will make you sweat and drink a lot of water. So, do you like to eat spicy food?

Man I can't eat without the spice! It's like eating dinner without rice (I'm Filipino)! So will that make me a spicy food lover? Uhmm.. maybe! haha!


myLot reputation of 96/100. sophisticated_boy (527)   ranked 1,489 out of 38,167 in life  3 months ago

Hahhaa yeah, I understand what you mean! I also cannot stand eating without rice! Eating with french fries or mashed potatoes feels different although it also carbs and make your stomach full...My boss is from Phillipines and he said that Indonesian food is still spicier than the Philippines food, so if there's any Indonesian restaurant there, you should stop by and try our spicy food. Have a great day tantrums!

I know what you mean. Even on pizza its like I really do have to have crushed red pepper on it or I do not enjoy it near as much. I love hot sauce on chicken and other foods as well.

I love spicy food. I think the best cuisine for this is Indian food since nearly everything is spicy. But, I cannot cook spicy food everyday (my husband would love this though) because of my kids who are not into anything spicy, I just add fresh habanero chillis (touted to be the hottest chilli on the chilli scale)or habanero sauce on my food. Spicy food is good for cleansing the stomach as well. Is this what they call the "Indian belly"?


myLot reputation of 99/100. hotsummer (2700)   ranked 24 out of 38,167 in life  3 months ago

yeah indian food is so spicy. i have heard of it . i would like to try indian food but i don't have it here in my country. there are some few indian restaurants here in the philippines. but they are fine dining. very expensive restaurants. i could not afford that. i don't know if the indian eatery i seen in one mall is cheap or what or if they are authentic indian food. i will try to like it there when i get back there.


myLot reputation of 96/100. sophisticated_boy (527)   ranked 1,489 out of 38,167 in life  3 months ago

Oooh, I like Indian food if it contains a lot of curry. What's habanero? Is it some kind of chili? I think Indian food has different spiciness compare to us. For you, the spiciness comes from a lot of herbs while Indonesian food usually comes from chili. Yeah, Indian restaurants in my country also quite expensive. Very rare it came with affordable price. Thanks for the response!


myLot reputation of 90/100. involved62 (630)   ranked 7,946 out of 38,167 in life  3 months ago

Habanero is a type of chilli - really hot. I don't know where the center of origin is, but I think it is in the Yucatan (Mexico or somewhere there). Chillis and ginger make Indian food spicy, not the herbs. Turmeric, coriander, nutmeg, cardamoms - these are not spicy.

very much! i even cooked pasta both sour and spicy. i really want it that way. my friends also brought me to her province and so laing and bicol express (native dish) became my favorites. i also tried cooking chicken biryani. anyway, my family loves spicy food.:)


myLot reputation of 96/100. patofgold23 (1671)   ranked 316 out of 38,167 in life  3 months ago

ahh cher!!!! you just made me sooo hungry.... grrrrrr!


myLot reputation of 96/100. sophisticated_boy (527)   ranked 1,489 out of 38,167 in life  3 months ago

HMMM....You make me hungry..and it's just 9 AM in Jakarta, still 3 hours from lunch:( Yeah, Indian food are well known cause they mix a lot of spice in their food. I think many Asian countries like that..I went to Europe once and find their food very blah, sour and no taste at all. I end up looking for Indonesian/Malaysian food there and luckily find one in Chinatown:)


myLot reputation of 96/100. patofgold23 (1671)   ranked 316 out of 38,167 in life  3 months ago

I do find other cuisine appealing too... I appreciate Italian, peruvian, and filipino..... the rest..do not suit my taste so much,. happy

I love spicy foods and foods with "kick" in them. I don't know what's with spicy foods. All I know is when I eat spicy foods is that I want to stop eating eat but later find myself chewing on that spicy food again.....SPICE GIRL!

Hey there. I adore spicy foos and always spice up my food regardless of what it is. I put chili in everything!!! I put tobasco on most foods except things life toast. Saying that I would put it on cheese on toast for sure.

Chili must release endorefins or something as it is definately something I crave. I lived in Korea for a year and really developed my love of spice there. Now I am back at home in the UK I continue to crave that type of food. I really must learn to cook Korean food.

People like to feel extreme heat i think as it can cause pain and this is very close to pleasure. There is a fine line between pleasure and pain. I like to feel the heat but don't eat it so that I cry and cant taste my food!

Ha,ha........may be you are right!


myLot reputation of 96/100. sophisticated_boy (527)   ranked 1,489 out of 38,167 in life  3 months ago

yeah. I think most part of Asia like to add spice, especially chili in their food. It makes the food even better and like you said have some kind of chemical ingredients that can arouse people's hunger. Have you ever taste chili bean, specifically the green chilli? It will makes you ear burns and drinks a lot of water eating it. Although it's painful, I just cannot resist the temptation to eat it:)

Spicy food is more exciting and unless it makes you physically sick it is perfectly healthy for you. Overdosing on hot peppers by themselves or in strong sauces can give you a nasty case of diarrhea. Short of that just enjoy this meals.

Your friend can stick to eating white bread and oatmeal if he likes but you can eat the good stuff.


myLot reputation of 96/100. sophisticated_boy (527)   ranked 1,489 out of 38,167 in life  3 months ago

yeah, the water must be there, if not you will be painfully sweating and your tongue will burn like crazy! It's better to drink warm water though, cause it neutralized the burn from the chili. Drinking cold water, or soda will not be very helpful to ease the pain

Mostly I like spicy food but it mainly depends on my mood. Since I'm a pure non-veg I prefer spicy foods & especially those home made foods than outside food. thumbup

9. myLot reputation of 100/100. dorannmwin (1930)   ranked 3,346 out of 38,167 in life   3 months ago

Yup, I really like to eat some food with some spice to it. When I was younger I didn't like spicy food at all, but that all changed when I met my husband who is a huge fan of spicy food. He eats spice with everything and because of that I've started eating spice on a lot of my food as well. In eating the spicier food I have found that my metabolism has gone up which is really just an added benefit. I even feel that the spicy sauces enhance the natural flavor of food as well.


myLot reputation of 96/100. sophisticated_boy (527)   ranked 1,489 out of 38,167 in life  3 months ago

Hi dorann, we meet again! Ah, you cannot resist the temptation of spicy food now:) It's good to be influenced by your husband, spice comes from natural herbs so it must be good to mix that up with your food. Spice add some flavors and make the food tastier. So, like you said it surely makes our metabolism gone up. Thanks for the response!

I love to eat spicy food and all kinds of hot seasonings.
Food without spice tastes a bit bland.
I like hot chilli, cayenne, cajun spice, hot curry, and garamasala.



myLot reputation of 96/100. sophisticated_boy (527)   ranked 1,489 out of 38,167 in life  3 months ago

oh, I think you're from India right? My favorite is curry..Thanks for the response!
