Crusader for capsaicin

Same problem here, my wife sweats from black pepper. We have to make everything really mild so I add hot sauce or powder mixes to my own serving. At least my middle daughter and oldest son-in-law enjoy hot spicy foods.
 
Baby steps, guys....baby steps.... :lol:....It's all about building up the tolerance~ 
 
Funny thing...my 86 year old dad 'hates' onions, garlic, hot peppers and most anything spicy.  But he loves a nice smooth ( no visible onion pieces)spaghetti sauce, and when we go out for Mexican food, he's right there chowing on the chips and salsa right along with the rest of us.  :rolleyes:
 
My girlfriend is often talking about how her tolerance for spicy food is much higher than it used to be a year ago. I was munching on a pile of pickled peppadew peppers at a buffet and offered her one. She could barely finish it cause it was so spicy. "What were you like a year ago??"  :eh:
 
 
I clearly have my work cut out for me. haha
 
Way back when I was still in highschool I used to cook some of the meals, so I would make them a bit spicier each time. My mother eventually built up more of a tolerance, but my sister didn't. I tried the same thing with my wife and step-kids, definitely didn't work with my wife. I know over the last 6 months my tolerance has gone up drastically, I ate half a naga today before it really got to me.
 
I'm the only.one with even a slight tolerance. Hopefully that changes by the end of this season. I think the trick is to start them on the milds, Aji Jobito, etc, and work your way up.
