Proving my place in the vanguard by stuffing my face with chilies
:frothingfash:
As an aside, I find white people hot sauces to be pretty unpleasant. Most of the actually hot ones seem to be unbalanced and only out to cause pain in a “eating this proves I’m macho” kind of way. If there’s any balance of flavor, it’s just a bit sour which is fine but still not amazing.
Idk, if anyone has recommendations, lmk.
It was Beijing’s ruinous salt tax that forced the Sichuanese to use chili peppers to flavor their food. A major source of income was taxing salt. It’s demonic in its evilness. Either pay the sky-high price or have food with no taste. Salt is an important nutrient that is essential in our cells, which is why we are rewarded for consuming it with the sensation of good taste. So they were forced into using peppers, which let’s just be clear here, hurt. The government forced people to hurt rather than eat bland, flavorless food. Demonic.
That’s interesting:the-more-you-know:
I gotta say that peppers are delicious and the heat feels good though, for some of us at least.
