Black pepper can at least be described as spicy in flavour. Ketchup is like sugary tomatoes, wtf.
I agree that black pepper could be described as spicy, but like, mildly? Clearly a very mild spiciness right?
EDIT: Like she’s acting like putting black pepper in something is similar to putting a ghost pepper or something into it.
If you do a lot of black pepper like in cacio e pepe it has a very nice mild heat to it, but I would never describe it as a spicy food lmao
if you use a lot of black pepper I’d call that spicy, but it definitely is a weak spicy and doesn’t stick on the tongue like real spice does.
Yes, this is a bit. Ketchup literally has added sugar.
As an aside, that’s a good reason to toss out the ketchup in your fridge. I still have some but that’s purely for other people. I learned the hard way not to be the dick who likes to entertain but doesn’t have common condiments in his fridge.
