In my travels I hooked up with a few women who would put 10 spoons full of red chili powder into their Kutiyao soup. I can handle 4 but 10 is crazy, yet even while their eyes watered they loved every bit of it and would smile at me and say delicious!
That sucks, no head after the date.

I'm pretty sure my first encounter with tacos is when Taco Bell opened in my central IL town when I was a kid. The kind of tacos Walz describes are basically just those. Eventually as more Mexicans migrated into town we got actual Mexican food but they absolutely spiced it way down for their customers. Alton Brown once did a good (with flavor) version of these tacos that we still make once in a while.
Surprisingly Taco Bell's Diablo sauce ain't bad. Probably the best big chain fast food sauce I have tried.

When I order curry at a Thai restaurant I always tell my waiter to pretend I'm Thai and ordered it extra spicy and it has always worked. Though one time I had the owner come confirm my order and then watch to see if I'd send back the curry that I ordered 'double Thai hot.' Told her it was perfect lol.

What'd you order?

Tom Yum Kai?
Moo Nam Tok?
