Yes kababayan, I like spicy food! Because It helps reduce cholesterol absorption and metabolize fat, they are typically full of antioxidants. The hotter the spice or the food, the better for us. Adding spicy foods to our diet can definitely help weight loss.

I love spicy food...I like bicol express a lot. I love korean food (love 'em kimchi) and all other spicy hot Asian foods. Can't have enough of them!

I don't mind spicy foods, but I don't want an over the top spicy food to where I can't enjoy the other flavors. I think some of the best meals are a sweet and spicy meal. That type of meal where you get that little kick from the spices, but a sweet savory taste as well. You get the best of both worlds that way as those two tastes go hand in hand so well. However, compared to some of my other friends they can take more heat and spice than I can. One of them will pretty much put hot sauce on just about anything and everything! I wouldn't do that, some meals don't need a spice to them. You know it's a true spicy dish if you're nose clears up instantly and your eyes start to water!
So in a nutshell, yes I like spicy, but not to over the top.

I like a little spice or a little heat. I am not one of those people who likes to eat something so hot they like to sweat to me that is uncomfortable, if it burns my taste buds that is too much. I am in to flavor so if a little flavor adds in some heat then that is great by me. But I don't like really over the top spicy food that is just spicy and not flavorful.

If you mean chilies or hot spicy food, well, we are alike in our likes! 
Spicy hot food do stimulate the appetite and makes me eat more than I should. So when I know I should not be eating so much, I make it a point not put the bottle of chili garlic oil on the table. However, one very good reason for me to eat spicy food is its ability to clear the sinuses. Hot spicy food is a natural decongestant for me.
