Debate to end all debates!

I knew what was coming, but I had to look anyway.

Nothing better than fried chicken, tater salad, corn on the cob and a passel of friends in fellowship in the Lord under the wide open skies. Your post reminded me of many such days with brothers and sisters enjoying a day together.

 

Why haven't any of you gotten it yet?  Why do you insist on ignoring the only thing in this world that makes food bearable?  Why is it that NO ONE (including our leaders, mentors and spiritual advisors)  will remember to include the MAGNIFICENT JALAPENO?

**sigh**

I can't believe this debate has the most pages of posts, except for the "once saved always saved thread."  Ridiculous!  The answer is obviously ORIGINAL.  What recipe built the great franchise? ORIGINAL.  What recipe is crispy, yet doesn't leave slight abrasions in the roof of your mouth like pizza with garlic salt sometimes does? ORIGINAL. Finally, my fellow Christians, the very word "ORIGINAL" appears in the Good Book itself, yet the word "Crispy" does not.

Ah, good friend....but it does!  As a matter of fact, it specifically speaks to the issue of "EXTRA crispy."  You can find the references in Rev. 19:20, 20:10, 20:14 and 20:15.  Plus, there are many other places where just the "crispy" part is spoken of.......check it out!

No Jalapenos for me, I have been freed from facing that which is hot.

And I always that the thing that made all food taste better was Ketchup.

           ROFL!

SPICY HOT!  I eat tiny pieces of jalapeños as flavoring in various foods, but I can rarely eat them whole or plain. I'm sitting here laughing and thinking of friends who love to eat them. The visual picture is beads of sweat on their foreheads, yet still saying, "UM! - GOOD!"

I was cured from eating hot foods when I was in Guam. The boonie pepper, when grown on Guam, is one of the hottest of all peppers in the world. It melted the iron coating I had in my stomach and I can't eat any kind of peppers now except the really sweet ones. Most of the indigenous people there won't eat it by itself. I made the mistake of doing just that. Eyes bulged and turned red, clothes were soaked in sweat and smoke rolled out of nose and ears for over a week.

Pastor..you are brave...

I love Popeye's beans and rice...MILD...

[Soldier4Christ]

I don't think I would call that brave. I think that this situation better fits in another category .....    not knowing any better.

or....knowing better...

My grandmother in Texas remarried a Mexican fellow, great old guy, who when I was a young boy used to tell my brother and I that we weren't really men unless we could eat hot peppers . . . and then he'd pull down a jar and eat them with us.  Haven't much liked overly hot food ever since . . . but I did win some bets at the National Jamboree in the Boy Scouts.  The Scouts trade patches, and I collected patch after patch eating from a jar of hot peppers.

Brothers and Sisters,

I don't think that I can spell it, but maybe I can get close enough for you to know what I'm talking about.

I tried a Korean food called chem-chi one time, and I thought I was going to die. I didn't have a clue. It was like liquid fire. I have no idea what kind of pepper was in it, but I would rather drink the pepper-mace I used on the police department.      My so-called friend simply told me it was good but somewhat hot. It looked like vegetables, so I chomped down on a pretty good spoonful. I did create a disturbance in the eating place and nothing helped, not even an entire glass of water. Everyone was laughing at me, and I was in my police uniform. I didn't think it was funny.   

My stomach was a complete wreck for about 4 days, and I don't know how people eat this stuff.
