Is it just me? I was disappointed in their taste. They just don’t hit like they use to or am I just losing my mind

    I got Thai curry from a new place. I have NO head for capsaicin heat, but I do like a bit of warmth so when he asked me how hot I wanted it on a scale of 1-10, I said three. He said that wasn’t too bad.

    I had to eat little bits alternating with lots of rice. He was from Thailand. Apparently, his scale is exponential. I can’t imagine what a ten would be like.

      The Pakistani chef at a restaurant I went to ask us if we wanted it “white people hot” or “brown people hot”.
