Why are foods spicy to certain people?

575 viewsOther

My fiancé *LOVES* spicy food, and a lot of other foods I don’t like, which is fine, but we were talking a few days ago and I told him I thought bell peppers were spicy, he laughed and said, “They’re not spicy? What do you mean?” Which made me contemplate everything I’ve ever known. Am I just broken?

There are non-tasters and super tasters. Non tasters have more taste buds on their tongue. Super tasters have less taste buds. I’m a non taster. I like spicy, salty, peppery, hot food, whiskey and big bold red wines. My wife is a super taster. She doesn’t like anything spicy. Only semi bland food and only a good chardonnay.
