Is it possible to train your taste buds to eat really spicy foods?

Question

Wanna eat spicier foods.

Answer 1

Good question...I don't know.  Perhaps you can try to build your tolerance up.  Start slow and then work in the heat gradually.

Answer 2

should be...just try something a lil hotter than what you can eat, once you mastered that move up

Answer 3

absolutely, you just eat it hotter then have a few dishes that hot, then increase the heat, and stick at that for a while and so on. I eat much hotter food than ever I did with no problem at all. x

Answer 4

yes i started with franks hot sauce now i eat habanero peppers

Answer 5

Yes.. basically it's a gradual thing.. get used to eating foods a bit spicier than you do now.. then go a bit spicer, etc,

Answer 6

I really can't stand eating spicy foods, but for some reason I adore hot wings (And the hotter the better).

You can build up a resistance to spicy foods but it's slow going. Start off with only mildly spicy foods and try to find foods that you love with a bit of kick. I also like hot sauce on hash browns.

It would also help to understand what kind of spice you like.

Answer 7

i think so. margaritas on standby is the key
