I totally agree with you. My in-laws are always talking about how spicy they like their Indian takeaway food, and how they have to change their usual order when I’m dining with them. I’m just here thinking, “I don’t like it when the food hurts my mouth when I’m eating it.” Its as simple as that. If I can choose two versions of the same food, where one hurts my mouth and the other doesn’t, I’m going with the non-painful one, thanks.
The one exception I make is Jalapenos. I love the taste of jalapenos. They are not very spicy on the whole scale of things, and the flavour they add to subway sandwiches and vegetarian pizzas is amazing. But that is unrelated to Indian food.
