In India, people are used to eating spicy food since their birth. I guess it's similar in middle east. If you are used to it, it won't taste spicy to you.
i was having lunch at work the other day with my two co-workers, who are from the Middle East orginally, i was tucking into my ham and cheese sandwich and pork pie when they asked if I wanted any of their food.. it was obviously cusine from their home countries (i didn't know what it was) but I had a taste and it was okay.. not great, the spice kinda took over I said to them, but they were in disagreement..
so I was just wondering why do Brown people like spicy food so much? it's not that great in my opinion
