Spicy Food - I Can't Stop

[buchannon 17]

I've always loved a little kick to my eats, but about a year post-op it hit me that I ONLY desire to eat foods which are spicy. Mexican, Thai food, and everything in between! Last time I had pizza it was pepperoni with jalapenos, I then showed it in red peppers, then even put Sriracha on it!

Any one else feel an affinity for spicy food post-op? I wonder why this is.. (definitely not pregnant)

i have been craving spicy food since surgery. Not spicy hot food, just food with a lot of flavor. i love Mexican now, and before i could hardly stomach it. Slim Jims in all different flavors too. I think we taste food better now, and just like the flavors more?

Ick! Maybe rethink the SlimJims? I seem to recall that they are molded, pressed and formed grease ... and spice of course. I shouldn't talk because I have a dry salami habit.

Absolutely the opposite with me!! I can't handle spicy foods AT ALL... it kinda sucks lol. I was never a big spicy-hot food fan, but I could tolerate medium-hot wings... now I have to go mild and it has to be very light I'm glad you can still enjoy your favorite food!

I am pre-op and it was good to read that I might be able to eat spicy one day again. I do like spicy food and thought it was one of the things I had to give up with the sleeve so glad to hear that it might be in my future.
