Some Like It Hot

Following Denmark's recall of several spicy ramen noodles from Samyang, claiming that the capsaicin levels in them could "poison consumers", we thought the time was right to talk about spice tolerance and heat. So in this episode, we hear tales of enjoyment, woe... and borderline masochism, when it comes to how much spice we (and our listeners!) like in our food.
