Just a thought... Traditional Japanese food is not spicy (I do not consider wasabi spicy). Danish food is not spicy. Argentinian food is not spicy. But Mexican, African, Indian and Thai food are spicy. What's the common denominator? If the country is located near the equator with hot weather or not. I think when there were no refrigerator or air conditioners, spices were added to the dishes to 1. increase appetite in the hot weather, and 2. hide taste of unfresh food.

I love food! I think and talk about food all day even when I'm asleep... I'm "Live to Eat" kind of person not "Eat to Live". I want to enjoy every food I eat. I ONLY get to eat approximately 93688 times before I die (I'm Japanese woman so my life expectancy is 85.56 years old x 365 days a year x 3 meals a day) so I have to choose the best thing to eat every day. I would not like to waste a space in my stomach with some tastes unworthy food.
