The Spice Train

Peppers and other spicy foods have been around for many decades and the popularity of this food type is only increasing. I personally love eating spicy foods and think it is enjoyable. I believe the spice is a way of excitement for some people and can be fun to experience. I know most people don’t like spicy food which is fine, however, it’s a thrill that I will always love. I think that the term spicy came from actual spices that were “hot”. Although, you can’t just someone is hot because it means something completely different. Not to mention, the chemical capsaicin is the reason for the spicy sensation we get from eating these foods or peppers.
