I don't understand either. Mild salsa is about as hot as I like stuff. If something has me drinking a glass of water after one bite to extinguish the burning in my mouth I generally consider it unfit for consumption. I'm about at a half level above this. |

My daughter is like me, she loves salted foods, pickled foods and spicy foods. My son cannot even take a little hot, he loves sweets. I think most people lean either towards sweet/mild foods or salt/spicy foods. |

Jalapenos are actually very delicious if you remove the seeds (the hottest part of peppers).
Habeneros are pretty much hot no matter what you do, but still tolerable with seeds removed. Just keep milk handy and it's not so bad. Clears your sinus'! |

It's a very simple concept. You get use to spicy. Spicy becomes not spicy. So you eat spicier food. It's the same reason there are different channels on the TV. People like different things. As a kid I remember pepperoni seemed hot to me...this last weekend I had Buffalo Wild Wings Ghost Pepper wings. I like my wings as hot as I can, other food I cut the heat to taste the other flavors. |

I really like spicy food, but the problem is, it destroys my guts...I get the lava hershey squirts every time I eat a bunch of spicy things. My question is, does your asshole and GI tract ever get used to eating spicy shit, so that it doesn't destroy you anymore? Weird thing is, I'm the exact opposite. I've LOVED spicy shit, like ouch my mouth hurts spicy since I was probably 10 years old. Could never get enough of it. It never bothered my digestive tract though, up until..... About a year ago it started getting to the point where lava hershey squirts were happening probably about 5 minutes after eating anything remotely hot. Pretty sure eating spicy shit all the time has caused me to get IBS. Fucking sucks. 
ETA: Still doesn't stop me from eating it.

The heat can brin you to a whole new level. Many chilis do indeed have amazing and unique flavors. You just need the proper tolerance to actuay taste it. There is definitely stuff that only provides a chemical burn though. I'm not a fan of that chemical heat flavor.
I don't enjoy cooking for other people all that much because my definition of bland seems to be some folks upper limits. Luckily my FIL loves hot food too. We destroy Thai restaraunts for fun. |

I used to not like really spicy food, but I now love it when I have extremely hot (especially Mexican) food. Not all the time, but about twice a month. I make my own hot sauces and salsa's so I can adjust to what I want. Nothing like salty tortilla chips dipped in a tablespoon of the hot stuff!
The only problem is the next morning.

When I was younger I put hot sauce on EVERYTHING. I kept a bottle in the team room, a bottle in my ruck, and a bottle in my truck. I carried it into the movies and put it on popcorn. I put it on pizza. I would go thru a drive thru and put it on food driving down the road. I'm sure I did permanent damage to my insides! Now, I don't eat that crap. My guts can't take it! I won't eat food that "hurts"- at any point between when it enters my body to when it exits.

Without reading everyone elses posts, I'll answer your question. Have you ever had a fine single malt scotch? If you had, you would appreciate the complexity and different stages of flavor as it seeming-less melts in your mouth. Guess what? Peppers have that same affect on the taste buds. It really is amazing what kind of variations of flavor a single pepper has. (I find it to be more complex in the superhots). So basically, if you can train your body to take the heat, then you get to really enjoy what flavors spicy chilis can provide. I eat them whole as pods, or make sauces, mustards, jellies, salsas, ect. So stop being a puss and try to enjoy the flavor. Quote HistoryQuoted:

The Ghost pepper thread made me ask the question: why? I've never understood it, why do some people insist on making their food hurt? I like to enjoy, and actually TASTE my food, not run screaming from the room, and give myself a swirly to try to extingwish the flames in my soon to be melted to slag toilet when I get done digesting that noxious crap. Why do some people insist on eating painfully hot food? What is the point? If you really want pepper flavor why not use a non hot pepper? Why do you want to hurt yourself? I hate spicy foods, hell I don't even like mint, give me red pepper flakes, or a jalapeno, and I feel like my teeth are going to crack from the heat. I messed with Habaneros ONCE, (Not to eat, I was attempting to make a noxiously hot substance to spray on my Ferret's hammock to make him stop eating it, but the damn thing actually seemed to enjoy it.) and just the fumes were enough to make me nearly vomit. I had to leave the kitchen, and don my gas mask (I actually needed to put on my gas mask, I'm not kidding about that.), yet I see people pop those evil little bastards like candy, not to mention the true masochists that eat Ghost peppers (Even the Indians (dot) who spice their freaking water don't eat those things, they smear them on fences as ELEPHANT REPELLENT), I just don't understand the appeal of pain. For reference the absolute hottest I can tolerate are Doritos Jacked Enchilada Supreme chips, and i can just barely force myself to eat those. Culturally/historically the only reason people started eating spicy food (and why it's still very popular in the third world today) was to cover up the taste of half rotten food, and questionable ingredients. So can someone explain it to me? Why do you like pain when you eat? Have you ever had a fine single malt scotch? If you had, you would appreciate the complexity and different stages of flavor as it seeming-less melts in your mouth. Guess what? Peppers have that same affect on the taste buds.

I like spicy foods. I didn't grow up in a house where we cooked with many peppers at all. My parents still aren't particularly fond of any of them, even mild jalapenos. For me, it was dating a girl who was into spicier foods+allergies. Nothing clears out my sinuses quite as well as some good spice, and when I moved away from home and developed allergies, spicy foods helped combat how congested and stuffy I get. I went from not liking anything spicier than restaurant salsa to growing my own jalapenos, serranos, thai peppers, cayennes and habeneros.
There is no such thing as a "mild Jalapeno. Which is more "mild"?:
