      I’m pretty sure Americans have a panic attack when what they’re eating isn’t at least 50% high fructose corn syrup.

      Haha I was just in England/UK/Britain and the food was whack, in England especially. The reason England is famous for its fish and chips is because it’s the only thing that is good.

      Curry is bomb though, but idk (honestly) if that counts. Colonizing India is the best thing that ever happened to England, sadly you cannot say the same going the other direction lol

      Haggis fucking rules though!

              Vindaloo is 175,000 to 500,000 scoville.
              That’s on my not hot list.
              Try 1.2 million scoville phaal curry, it’s one of my favorite warm up foods, now that shit is GOOD. 😋😍
              You fail to realize hot food in America is literally a fucking sport, like you sign a waiver that says if you die they’re not liable kind of sport.

          Eh, there are different kinds of “spicy”. Depending on how dead your receptors are after eating that “spicy” food before.

          So if you don’t notice some kind of spices anymore, and are going to try the same amount of something you’ve not tried before, it may be painful until your receptors are dead to that too.

          Personally I think it’s simply bad taste and bad cuisine to put large amounts of spices and salt into food. You should feel the actual flavor of what you are eating behind spices and herbs and salt and sugar and what not.

              The objective part I’ve checked experimentally many times, so fsck right off.

              The subjective part doesn’t require your approval. Think that moment in the “Green Book” movie about “salty” and people unable to cook.

                Dont post opinions publicly if you can’t cope with people disagreeing. And maybe chill out

                  I was chill typing that, just intentionally rude.

                  Also harmful advice. You should do whatever you want in any case, including

                  post opinions publicly if you can’t cope with people disagreeing

                  , if you want to preserve your sanity.

                    This is just my opinion, but being intentionally rude isn’t nice. I can understand it when someone has been really egregiously offensive but when you’re discussing how much spice should be in food? Come on
