Why don’t I like chili? I’ll tell you why. It makes my tongue all stingy and the sensation don’t actually go off until the next few minutes. And when you try to drink water to stop the spiciness? It burns even more, like you tongue is literally on fire. I swore in my head and swore words from a mass of words I know from multiple languages (trust me, not so good words) until I swear I am tearing up. I know that water don’t actually help, but WHY DID I DO THAT? Am I some kind of masochist?
Is this some kind of phase or is it’s merely peer pressure?
