Bangkok Barry Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Several years ago I was staying at a hotel in Dubai and a Colonel Sanders lookalike was there too, in town to promote the brand. He was a real spitting image, and I had a chat with him and he claimed to have been a friend of the Colonel. I've wished ever since that I'd had a photo taken with him (it was in the days before selfies). Can you imagine how Thailand's 'entertainment providers' would react to a photo of me with Mr KFC! I'd have been even more handsome than usual ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should have drank some hot tea , that would make the spicy food less spicy Actually, wrong. It's not cold things that make it worse. It's the fact that water and oil don't mix. So to lessen the effect of the spicy oil, you should have something with fats in it; like yoghurt or...ice cream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThailandRyan Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Very mild for my taste buds, but then I eat Som Tam with 10 crushed red chilis and a few green ones when i want to sweat some more. There is a place in the US Called Buffalo Wild Wings, when they first opened years ago, they had there spiciest wings in a special offer called the Blazin Challenge, and if you could eat them all (12 wings) in 6 minutes you got them free, a free T-shirt and your photo on the wall of fame. I managed to eat them in 3 minutes, and asked for another basket. My son tried just some of the sauce and he was screaming like a baby. They said they were 300,000 on the Scoville scale, I think they were pretty tasty and mild. Now with that said, when I eat my Thai food I eat it Thai Spicy and it makes the back of my head sweat but not the front, like when I eat Mexican jalapeno's. Still trying to figure that one out. Tried some ghost pepper sauce once my son gave me, and I thought it was pretty hot, I have been known to eat the wasabi paste straight when we have sushi as well. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in agony as well, had to eat a large amount of ice cream to reduce the pain. Wasn’t disgusting though, just way too hot for farang like us to handle. Maybe try some Isan food? Farang Lao is a name of honour. Edited September 18, 2020 by hansnl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m waiting for all the puritans to come along and mention how disgusting western fast food is when there is perfectly good street food available which is also fast food Thai style !!!! and then go on about how western food culture is fattening up all the bar girls !!!!

No way too hot for you too handle. Please dont stereotype the farung who live here and have picked up the spicy habit. British? Australian. My admiration for farang who can cope with Thai food. I thought the British boasted about the strength of the curries they could eat (as in “Red Dwarf”). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could eat chili raw without problems. After reading that chili is often full of pesticides I stopped eating it. And now everything is too spicy again. Clearly ! Farangs who cannot get used to spicy food are just closed mind idiots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairynuff Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 (edited) I’d have to be on the point of starvation before I’d eat that stuff. When there’s so much good fried chicken on the street why on earth would anyone eat that muck? Edited September 18, 2020 by Fairynuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of like the Kangaroo meat that Jack in the Box was accused of using in burger in the US many years ago, but then that was found to be a half truth as the meat at the receiving center only tested for traces of it, and the claim was that no burgers were ever made from it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, when they have it! Last 3 times Ive been to my local KFC, twice they had no burgers at all and last time they had the burgers, but "no wegetabl", something they chose to tell me AFTER I'd waited 25 minutes for it to be prepared, so basically I got 2 buns with a chunk of chicken in. And I thought Chinese KFC's were bad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love spicy food too, but unfortunately, don't get to eat it every day. Pity my Local(ish) pub has closed as they cooked the best 10oz burgers. The spiciest version comes with plastic gloves to eat with. "The hottest burger in the UK with a powerful 9M scoville burger, 2.4M scoville sauce, and Sriracha Chips" I'm sure you would've had a fair crack at that? ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
