I don’t understand the logic of burning out your taste buds with spices.

More like ENHANCING the taste of the food you are eating. Scrambled eggs are much too flat tasting and MUST be enhanced with jalapeno or hot sauce.

Spicier foods are popular in hotter environments.

Besides lowering core body temperature by promoting surface blood vessel flushing and sweating, they also mask the taste of foods that are on the raggedy edge of spoiling in the heat, and they act as a vermifuge for parasites.

Besides, they release endorphins...

It causes your body to release endorphins. It results in a feeling of pleasure.

It also makes food taste good when properly applied.

Logic doesn’t have anything to do with it. I like spicy hot food because to me it tastes good.

I don’t understand the logic of eating food you don’t like in the hopes that you’ll start to like it.
