My kid was born with a taste for spicy food. When he was about one he used to try to swig the spicy mayo bottle. When he was two he was doing the “more” gesture for more Sriracha on his burrito meat. He’s three now and regularly eats off his Dad’s plate when he has food that makes my nose run. He will probably be snorting Pepper X by his teens.
Comment on Hot sauce is for Dad to protect his food from scavenging by lesser beings

This worked until my kids developed a tolerance for heat. They are adapting! It’s only a matter of time before they are completely resistant!

That’s when you stop adding hot sauce to your food, and hide the sauce instead. They’ll be like “where’s the hot sauce”, at which point you’ll reveal you added it to their food already

Lol, same. Used to napalm my food to deter them eating my food, now they prefer habanero salsa/sauces. They can drink the sauces at restaurants, drown Mexican food in it. I was proud at first, now scared of what I have created.
