what's in there." "Yeah, Grams, but I'm guessing there's no roadkill or pig intestines in my Quarterpounder, and even if there is - meh, not like I haven't had them."
I draw the line at insanely spicy stuff - imo,
pain is not a flavor. Even so, I've got a high tolerance, so it's really just some Asian cuisines that bug me.
