Really spicy food is a meme. Something with bite is fine but I've never understood when people make food so spicy that all you can taste is burn. I've seen guys order the spiciest shit on the menu and look like they were being tortured while they are it and would act like it was good. You fags think it makes you look tough or something? You look like a goddam idiot when you have to take a break from eating to go splash off your face in the sink

to me the heat is almost an addiction, it feels good when it burns, and I've probably ruined my taste buds a bit with the food that I've eaten since a lot of food is basically tasteless if it isn't spicy to me.

[Anonymous No.13586072]

I like spicy food. But I don’t like something so incredibly spicy that I can’t taste my food anymore. Hot sauces/spices/peppers should compliment the food, not overpower it.

That being said, this is probably the hottest sauce I can handle. This is from a NYC/NJ local chain called Mamoun’s Falafel.

I hate the soyboy memes but this is soy as fuck. ~3000 scoville is the prime spiciness where its good but not completely overpowering.

Is the spicy sandwich actually spicy? I got the regular one and there was ZERO spice even though normal popeyes food is usually somewhat spicy.
Also it was fucking packed with mayo, why the fuck would you put so much mayo on a chicken sandwich?

[Anonymous No.13586299]

>>13586076
You are correct
So Cholula, at 500~1000 scoviles, is not a hotsauce. Frankly original tabasco is the starting point here.

I go for https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/304387376 on my eggs, which isn't obnoxiously hot but is certainly several times hotter than cholula.

I spent a weekend in London last year and went to eat at Nando's because of all the /int/ shitposts I've seen. I saw this scale on the menu and didn't really know what to make of it. I ordered both hot and medium wings to be on the safe side and the food was a massive let down. The heat on the medium wings was literally imperceptible. And the "hot" wings were only ever so slightly spicy. We raided the condiments/sauces table and tried every single hot sauce they had to offer and we found a single sauce that was actually spicy.
What the hell is wrong with British people? Are there actually people that would order the plain chicken there? Might as well eat boiled chicken breast.

Some chains are satisfactorily hot. Zaxby's insane sauce is great, I hate to use a gay word like zesty but it is pretty good. I small chain in Florida I've had a few times was Wing Zone, their nuclear habanero sauce was pretty spicy and had a bit of sweetness to it without overpowering and becoming disgusting. But BoB's, Hooter's, etc are all extremely disappointing with their hottest sauces being pathetically mild or nothing but dry heat void of flavor. I like a local place near me, they've got a 1-9 scale that btfos the chains in my area even if they are more expensive.

I really only like these retardedly high levels of spicyness on chicken wings. Some other foods like chili works well too, but I can't stand people who dump hot sauce on half of the shit they eat.

But boneless wings are gay. They're unreliable for the quality and origin of meat. Instead of proper fatty skin they rely on often excessive breading. And eating meat off the bones of a wing is easy - the drums are obvious and there are several tricks to pull the bones right out of flats.

A few hours after eating the wings and a few hours before bed, try to eat something else. Anything as long as it is substantial. It will get your digestive system moving to help you have that bad shit before going to bed, and hopefully make it not quite as bad. Less chance of stomach cramps the next day too.

How are those ? Europoor here. We only have the local fried chicken (which has no spicy items on the menu) and KFC, which is shit here.

They're not that spicy but since you're European it would likely set your mouth on fire.

So a cajun season rub with breadcrumbs roasted on peppers? Yeah that's good but don't think you're special or whatever for it. White people do similar. For my last Thanksgiving we had two turkeys where one was deep fried in peanut oil and the other was oven-roasted with a cumin/paprika wet rub with all of the usual side dishes. Quit living in your black twitter meme bubble.

It seems like you were just waiting for any response so you could have a chance to spout some racist bullshit.

Not even the guy(s) you were replying to. And it's been 15 hours since you posted that image, hardly what I call fishing for the response. Nothing I said was racist, but if that's what you want then I can start posting 13/50 FBI crime stats.

The debunked numbers that people only bring up when they want to be racist? How convenient that you would happen to know them while denying to be racist.

I pronounce the actual name of the city and I don't stroke myself over using weak capsaicin slurry as a dip.

But the guy who first brought up the race bullshit was the butthurt black twitter meme poster >>13587846. And after that the only one to get mad and cry racism when nothing racist was ever said was again him.

Don't even waste your time on him, he knows. Everyone who uses this dumb fucking site knows. They just love to pretend they're convincing someone, instead of talking to themselves, over and over.

I like that he gave up right after this. Not so based after all.

Hilarious coming from the guy who now says "imagine" all the time just because he noticed his friends on 4chan started saying it a lot.

You spend too much time here to be making connections that don't exist like that.
