We know someone from India. The stuff that he says is “not spicy enough” is REALLY HOT!!!
What did Indians use before hot peppers? Hot peppers are a New World phenomenon. Should Indians repent of cultural appropriation?
My first experience of Indian food was at an eatery in Union Station here. It was wonderful, but the curry my husband ordered was even too hot for him. (He always complains that food advertized as hot isn’t hot enough.)
