There is a misconception about hot and spicy foods.
Some people think they’re dangerous – that they’ll actually burn the linings of the esophagus and stomach. For years it was believed foods like hot peppers and curry were the culprits behind ulcers.
A lot of folks still hold to this line of thinking. I run into them on a daily basis. They avoid anything with a little heat in it.
And boy are they missing out!
