Daily Chit Chat - Summer thread coming soon!

New girl here, but I just want to contribute to the spicy foods discussion in that I only learned just the other day that "spice" isn't an actual taste or flavor, but just a pain reaction. .___.

Although in some circles 'piquance' is considered a taste. And I love it so it's my favorite of the bunch, after salty.

 

[Yoshikko]

I don't like spicy at all, except mustard, ginger or wasabi because they are a different kind of spicy. The spicy that just burns on your tongue is really not my cup of tea, it just burns.

UMAMI IS WHERE IT'S AT

 

[Esper]

I still don't understand what umami is. Like, what is "savory" supposed to taste like? I though that was just a word that meant "tasty".

Yes! UMAMI! I love anything brothy or creamy!

@_@ And same with me; It like.. physically burns my tongue. Like it feels like sandpaper even days after I eat something spicy. It's terrible!

 

[Shiny Celebi]

I hate spicyness I usually cant tolerate it at all. Sometimes I can, depends on the food, if its like a soup, its alright but in other things, I cant really handle it. I guess I just have a really low tolerance for spicy food.

I'm quite the opposite, really. I tend to like foods more the spicier they are.

I'm much more critical of my brother in law's cooking when it's not spicy. XD;

He says I should go sample some Indian food.

As I said, my tongue can't take spicy food, it burns my mouth and starts developing canker-like sores. Which makes it difficult when we go visit this one uncle because he loves to put really spicy stuff in just about every dish he makes. I seriously can't eat hardly anything he cooks.

 

[Shiny Celebi]

I dont enjoy the feeling of my mouth burning when I eat spicy foods, sometimes if its really spicy it can overpower other flavors in the food, which I dont like at all, I like to actually be able to taste my food.

 

[Who's Kiyo?]

You know I don't like? When a food is so hot that you can't enjoy it. Like coffee.

Or microwaved chicken. Microwaves ruin chicken.

 

[Oryx]

I don't get the idea of spicy at all. :( Like the only time I get it is when there's a specific taste that happens to go with a spicy food so they have to go together.

 

[Overlord Drakow]

I like the spice. I troll my friends sometimes with spicy food lol.

 

[Shiny Celebi]

I dont really get why people would intentionally eat food that burns their mouth but whatever I guess I'll never understand.

 

[北海道]

I guess, it's a "dirty pleasure" kind of thing?
I mean, they can't process it but they love it?

 

[Ephemeral Euphoria]

Spicy food's okay as long as it has some actual flavor in it, can't be just hot for me it has to have a kick that makes me want to come back for more. Chipotle wings are a good example of that nowadays imho lol.

 

[北海道]

Speaking of Chipotle, those are strong. I ate a sandwich with a bit of chipotle sauce once, it burnt my mouth :(
It was awesome, but god, it burnt.

 

[Palamon]

Oh, what an amazin conversation--weather! It's pouring here today. We haven't had any rain in a long time. =_=

And all I've eaten today is crap food.

 

[北海道]

That's a shame that it rained that bad.
I like rain, sure, but pouring storms are another thing :(
Speaking of which it drizzled today, nice refresher
Crap food rocks

 

[Oryx]

A wild weather conversation appeared!
Toujours used Complain!
It's not very effective...

 

[Palamon]

^ It's not very effective because you can't think of anything. THINK OF SOMETHING. >:
