Spicy isn’t a taste or a smell, it is a sensation caused by the compounds lowering the threshold to activate of heat detecting nerves too below the ambient temperature of the human body. It’s basically making you burn your self.
Lots of other “flavors” are also like this, lowering the threshold of firing for certain sensory nerves. Sichuan pepper for instance, it lowers the threshold for movement sensing, causing the bizarre tingle waving sensation.
Those heat sensing compounds exist all over your body, not just in your mouth.
Personally no thanks I don’t want to start associating food I ate as poop.
I see we’re having a debate about tasting shit. May I politely ask, would you like to “eat shit”?
Personally, nah.
To some, hilarity.
To others, science.
To others, horror.
To… Others… Pleasure :(
I’m of the first three.
Your body absorbs all good flavors except spicy. Be happy.
Either that or some sick fucks of you here need to do some experimenting for all of us. For science.
I can see the headline now:
“World descending into World War III, meanwhile, obscure internet forum discovers horrible new way to diagnose illness”
I already HATE smelling my coffee and asparagus through my pee. I would fucking hate tasting my food a 2nd time.
This is absolutely not true, your butthole can also taste menthol.
So I’m scared to ask, but what do you mean your butt can taste spicy?
people who dont have a built up tolerance to hot spice just plain love talking about how their butts feel.
if you eat spicy enough food, it will sting on the way out too
…I’m actually quite thankful my anus doesn’t have taste buds.
I’m reminded of this Uwos video…
uwo slab!!
Easy fix, just put spicy peppers in your pancakes
easier fix, just boof it
Butt chugging: next season on Hot Ones.
im putting a reminder in my calendar now
Because spicy is not a flavor. Spicy is more like an allergic reaction to a chemical that certain plants excrete as a defense mechanism. Humans are just weirdos because we enjoy our mouths and buttholes being on fire.
Plant: develops high amounts of capsaicin to ward off predators
Humans: ooh, this would be great with chicken!
Plant: am I a joke to you?
Similarly:
Yeast: I’m going to eat all this sugar and produce a toxin that will kill off competing organisms!
Humans: HAHA! Funny juice make head all silly…
Humans: YOU TWO PLANTS NEED TO FUCK, I NEED YOUR OFFSPRING TO BE HOTTER
It is not meant to ward off predators though. Being eaten is the goal, thats how the seeds are scattered.
It is to ward off mammals. Their goal is to be eaten by birds, birds can’t taste capsaicin, so it’s just normal food. And birds distribute the seeds.
Maybe it’s just the mouth part we enjoy and the other we tolerate.
Speak for yourself while I go boof some jalapeños
argument: we normally think of five flavors (salty, savory, sour, sweet, bitter) but without spicy the meal is not complete. shit, some people consider slimy a flavor and that’s fair.
They’re even spicier when you put the pepper directly in your ass.
Rubbing one around the balloon knot is quite affective if penetration is too much for you.
it took me a minute to finish deciphering this, glad i hung in there
😩
Because I guarantee you that it no longer tastes like pancakes.
I never remember what I ate last night for dinner, unless I’ve had corn
Or beets, which for the first 10 seconds you think you have Ebola… And then ah, yeah, the beets!
I do remember when I was a kid wondering what happened, then remembered I had a slurpee. (Blue Raspberry)
Tried making spicy pancakes. Would NOT recommend.
I bet something like cinnamon, ginger, cloves, or mustard would work alright with pancakes.
mildly spicy okonomiyaki sounds great actually
With the power of lactose intolerance, you too can regret certain non-spicy foods! Its usually pretty immediate though
