How spicy do I like my food?

@catsalad

The morning after is even more fiery, with no milky way out of the 🔥

@catsalad
I approve (and can only dream) of this level of spice in a pad thai

[betacuck4lyfe@kolektiva.social]

@catsalad holy shit, that's intense

[catsalad@infosec.exchange]

@BetaCuck4Lyfe Oh it was! Lol

@catsalad

I imagine "*spec prep*" as some sort of weird gun cocking sound

"MAKE HIM REGRET"
*spec prep*
"BEING BORN"

*Duke Nukem theme plays*

@purrperl @catsalad Someone has to invent the yogurt bidet.

@catsalad @deedasmi @nuintari 1000% this - i enjoy heat, but i cannot stand the way that (for example) bell peppers taste. If you can give me the one without the other (and have food that is otherwise, you know, good ofc), i'll order from you for-goddamn-ever

@catsalad I enjoy spicy. Enough that the majority of the people I know don't trust my perception of what constitutes a "spicy dish". That being true, I regretted the only time I tried a dish that was advertised as extraordinarily spicy.

I had "just" chicken wings at a local restaurant. They asked me to sign a waiver, and I could only eat 2 and a half wings. I shared the love with my roommate, and the wing sauce that he failed to clean out from under his class ring gave him a chemical burns.

@catsalad This video is still a fave of mine.

@catsalad oil works better than milk, capsaicin is fat-soluble, not water-soluble 🤓

@dave_cochran @catsalad @nuintari it was 60 miles away and we went like an average of once a week. It got to the point we’d go sit down and the waitress would just bring our food over without us ordering.

The last time I went before I moved away they brought dessert out for us. They didn’t sell dessert. Just wanted to share with us. Lovely people.

They shut down when the dad/chef stated having health issues. Like, six months before Covid.

@nobrainnopain @catsalad will it help with the after fire in the back burner?

[brouhaha@mastodon.social]

@catsalad
I did that kind of an order for red curry chicken once.
ONCE!

@catsalad

i worked with a guy that had almost infinite capacity for hot food. he wound up learning how to say "thai hot" in thai because they didn't believe him when he asked for thai hot in english. i tasted once and it made my mouth burn for 20 minutes (and i have a decent capacity for hot, though not thai level).

@deedasmi @dave_cochran @catsalad That is how this place is, if I don't stop Ping, I get spicy beef Lo Mein with no mushrooms and an eggroll.

[nuintari@mastodon.bsd.cafe]

@the_turtle @catsalad Heh, you mean the Iron Skillet over in Stony Ridge? Not there anymore.

We actually have a semi famous wings place called Jed's. If the owner could keep the till out of his nose, the place might stay open for more than a few years before shutting down and reopening someplace else a year later. Business issues aside, they have some phenomenal spicy chicken wings.

@nuintari @catsalad like I said, "there was a time."

I used to like that particular Iron Skillet, they tended to have their buffet up later than most, so when I was going through the EXTREMELY WAVY intersections nearby I knew I would get something to eat even at 9 o'clock.

@nuintari @catsalad a long-ago fiancee's grandfather used to have a large orchard in Perrysburg. After he died, I assume they sold and bulldozed it to build shitty beige houses. I haven't been there for any big amount of time since then, and you can't really see anything blowing past on the Turnpike going to Bryan or somewhere in Indiana.
