 America needs a new spice labeling system because “spicy” here can mean anything from a little chili and lime powder or something with black pepper, to something utterly mouth dissolving like this hummus I ate

There is no way this is possible with how diverse our food culture here is😭 you have everything from super spicy food made by immigrants to the blandest food imaginable made by your German-American grandma from Iowa.

Also the difference between “spiced” and “spicy” always messes me up. Like something will be seasoned with spices, but not hot spicy, and people won’t understand what I’m saying for some reason

Exactly! I love white people spicy. Im a white people. I don’t love having my mouth dissolved when I expected something more akin to Italian red flakes :c
