Spicy food

Thread Starter  

I and just getting started on the process and i was wondering what luck people were having with spicy foods. I just gotta know...:phanvan

By spicy, do you mean "hot" like jalapenos? I have problems with spicy foods, like hot salsa, because I need to drink a lot of water to cool the burn in my mouth. And we all know bandsters aren't supposed to drink while eating. If you just mean spicy in the sense that the food is cooked with a lot of different spices, like Indian food, then no I don't have any problems. It passes through the same as bland food.

Spicy is no good in my book. I was the queen of spicy but now if its too spicy it feels like a bit of acid reflux is going on. Like the hot wants to come back up so I limit the amount of spicy now.

so far spicy doesn't bother me, I've had jalapenos no problem.
