I can buy the normally very deliciously painful spicy stuff from Walmart now, instead of the pan Asian supermarket. I’ve noticed that it seems to taste wayyyy less spicy. It feels closer to a hot Cheetos spicy than the proper actually painful way it used to taste.
People don’t seem to realise you will build up a tolerance. My ex used to buy large bags of pickled hot jalapeños. Initially he could eat one or two, after a while he’d eat the entire bag without sweating.
We used to complain when my mother added a teaspoon of sambal to the nasi, now she adds two tablespoons.
Or you can just eat a 1 million scoville pepper from tesco’s because “why would they put the legit shit in fucking tescos lmao”.
I spent the next few hours wondering if I should go to the hospital because my digestive tract felt like it was being stung by bees.
After that, no spice can phase me.
Eyy malay/indo friend. How I miss good nasi and I never learned how to make the nicer nadi dishes. I crave nasi padang, nasi goreng, nasi lemak… I’m salivating now. I blame you.
