    I am so white I reflect the sun at people… I had to beg the server to give me the actual hot. The server made a point to apologize when I asked if there was a way to make it hotter… spice is life!

      Same. Red haired very white gal - you almost can’t make it spicy enough, but it’s hell to get anyone to believe that!

        I’ve been in the service industry my entire life… so I’ve seen plenty of folk claim black pepper is too spicy. I just hate that I give the appearance of that lol. I wish we could get a badge or something that says “yes I’m aware of what spice level you are talking about”

          Oooh… I love this idea! Like I could pull out my Scoville card! I know that doesn’t work across cuisines, but you get the idea. Brilliant.
