The Fast Food Thread

I just never understood the extreme spice thing. I mean I can understand a bit of heat and all but when you get to the point of it just being hot and not flavorful its just seems odd to me.

Do Asians and Mexicans really think they are the only races who can handle the spice?

Spice racism is real. Ordering spicy food and getting some bland shit because you are white is terrible.

and i said "yes"

and she said "oh ok, i give you real thai hot hot then"

I get it, if the customer complains it’s too spicy the restaurant is losing money if they have to remake it. But adding spice after the fact is never as good. I just want a “confirm you really want that” option.

and i'm pretty sure karen always says yes i understand, and complains afterwards, so experience has been to cut the spice by half whenever it's whitey

It’s fucking infuriating. The Sichuan place near me massively turned down the spice of their mapo tofu and it sucks now. Fucking whitey.

Guess when you are cooking cat and your recently deceased dog you have to spice everything up to the point of losing all flavor out of necessity.

lol I love it when some idiot thinks eating spicy food makes him super macho man and then wants to insult people who simply don't like it.
I dont like meatloaf does that make me a pussy?
I dont like brussel sprouts either, does that make me a pussy?

Bro, it's the fast food thread, the only cred here is how hot you can make it or how much cheese you can put on it

Very spicy food in other countries was how they covered up the taste of meat that was rancid but all they had to eat. But macho men in first world countries can't get enough.
Boggles the mind, i used to talk people out of ordering the hottest wings at a Wing joint i bartended years ago. Saved many good people from having a bad night, because 9 out of 10 people who ordered it would feel awful. Was some ghost pepper bullshit they put on the menu to attract business during the wing craze of last decade. In reality it was some normal sauce with a ton of capsaicin dumped in it. Anyway, spicy food is good but going for extra spice past the normal is ridiculous. Even if it's naturally made like add a few peppers or spicy ponzu but just a little too much will cover up all flavor. Who hasn't ruined a perfectly good dish by adding just a little too much spice? So to do it on purpose is stupid.

We would go to Buffalo Wild Wings a lot in high school for the cheap wing nights. Every once in awhile someone in our group thought they were tough shit and would order some inferno wings (they made you order a minimum of 6 or something). Every fucking time these guys pussed out and couldn't even finish a single one.

There was a thai place by an apartment I used to live in that had a thai language menu that was loosely translated to english over the years by customers. It was funny seeing different people's handwriting every time you asked to see it, they didn't give a fuck about actually updating it with english translations they just let us white people do it. Anyways they only let you order "thai spicy" if you ordered something off that menu, so I did it a couple times because it had some actual good shit on it... something called exploding catfish curry comes to mind, and banana blossom salad. Anyways long story short, I like heat, but I only did thai spicy once, it was fucking painful coming out.
