Why do people eat spicy food?
Some people LOVE spicy food, and some can’t handle the heat. Why is that??? Capsaicin, the chemical that produces the “heat” sensation in our mouths, can cause our bodies to release endorphins; generating happy feelings and a positive association. No one is “born” being able to eat hot and spicy food, rather it’s an acquired taste over time as a person becomes more tolerant of the averse chemical reaction.
There are other benefits to eating chile (chili) peppers as well, namely that they are an excellent source of vitamin C (WAY more than an orange), and the capsaicin they contain is highly antimicrobial, which scientists believe could be the reason chile peppers were domesticated by ancient native South Americans– it may have helped with food preservation and just overall making bland food exciting!
