The 'spicy' flavor is usually fairly 'hot' !.!.!. and the food usually comes from a hot climate!. The 'spicy hot' in the food actually COOLS the human body down so it doesn't feel the 'caloric heat' in the air!. Does the food have to be as spicy as is eaten in it's 'native country'!? No !.!.!. I love Thai and Chinese and East Indian food, but MUST ask for them to be the 'lowest spice' possible !.!.!. they may taste 'warm' but I can still eat them and my stomach doesn't get upset, either!. So, no, they do NOT have to be as 'spicy hot' as long as you can get enough to get the 'flavor' of the food, it's okay!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Because thats how we like it!.

The reason eastern food is spicy, is that it is in fact a mild form of poisoning!. In small doses it creates a heated sensation in the mouth and is quite pleasant, but in large doses it is very bad for you, if not fatal, kind of like alcohol!.
