EXTREME FOOD.
At first I could not believe that we don't have a forum for food, but suddenly I'm thinking that that might make a lot of sense, seeing as we have barely discussed it before. I have a preoccupation with food.
Anyway, I was thinking lately, "damn, I have no idea where to find Blair's chips in Toronto." Naturally youse guys will have no idea where I can buy them. But, is anyone else a fan? They're those really spicy chips that come in bags with threatening language on the cover. I'm a glutton but I can only really finish a small bowl of them before it gets too spicy for me (I'm good with spicy food for whitey, but whitey basically don't compare to humanity's taste for spicy food).
Also ITT I guess you can just talk about your feelings on spicy food in general. Spicy food is just more delicious than regular food, in general.

I'm not a fan of food that is spicy for the sake of spice, but I'm good with basically any regular dish from Mexico.

Re: EXTREME FOOD.
Yeah I was reading that, there's just nothing for certain. I was actually at a Rabba Foods on Thursday but I wasn't paying any attention and I didn't buy anything. At least it's close to school. 7-11s are everywhere, just no where near my path and I've never seen any Blair's there.

Rabbas are everywhere. They've only existed for a few years, and they are cropping up everywhere.

Re: EXTREME FOOD.
I've never heard of Blair's chips before, but I do like spicy food. Especially spicy Indian food.
I didn't used to get spicy food, and then my hometown got an Indian restaurant and I was forced to eat it. They've recently got a new chef, and the food isn't nearly as spicy as it used to be and I'm surprised how much I miss it.

Re: EXTREME FOOD.
I eat a lot of very spicy food. It is my favorite. When most people complain about the heat, I add more hot sauce. I like my food to hurt.

Re: EXTREME FOOD.
I've lost my appetite for things that could possibly kill me with one bite, though I'm all for epic-sized portions of 'acceptable' food types, if its better value for money. I guess I'm lucky I'm not in The Land of the Supersize, or I'll only be able to roll from place to place.
On a completely unrelated note, I miss Laneth, now once again there's no-one on during my regular posting time, I feel like the acne-covered teenage boy forced to work the night shift down at the video store.

Re: EXTREME FOOD.
Oh yeah, I've been there. Since I got a job I've been unable to eat anything that doesn't come in bulk value. Still, wouldn't rolling be really damn cool? Like a Katamari or something. And then things would get stuck in my gut and I'd just grow more and more until I consumed the entire Earth... Wicked.

Re: EXTREME FOOD.
I like habanero chips, but I've never heard of Blair's. Now I want to try them.
One time me and my friend split a bag and saw who could go the longest without a drink of water. I won.

Re: EXTREME FOOD.
I'd try them.
I love spicy food. (I'll re-mention a few things I think I've posted elsewhere on the board.)
Now, in respect to other cultures, I'm not sure. Mostly because I'm white. I've attempted to order the spiciest curry on the menu and had the owner/server (of a small, quite authentic restaurant) turn me down. He let me have the second hottest. Which was hot, but no where near my threshold.
I pretty much only order suicide wings when I have them. Most of my friends think I'm crazy.
But, again, most of my friends are white. And Dutch. And the Dutch have a tendency towards utterly bland food.
I once tried the Exorcist wings at one of the pubs I go to. They have a prize if you can finish. It was a struggle, I'll tell you. It was a pound, about 8 wings. The first two were fine. 3-5 were murder, and I didn't think I was going to be able to do it. Luckily 6-8 were fine, too (by that point I'd actually eaten the sauciest ones, which is where the spice was). It was punishment, and I don't think I'd do it again, unless I was told the prize ahead of time, and I wanted it. The first time I was not told. Luckily, it was a Kilkenney pint glass and leather coaster. Which was totally worth it, because I have a collection of pub-ware, and didn't yet have a Kilkenney glass.
But I've had a guy kill a chili with spice, and I could only manage a small bowl (I could've managed more, but sweating that much through half a bowl of chili isn't all that pleasant, even though I enjoyed it).
Anyways, I love me some spicy food. And, luckily, I don't have the adverse effects that come after spicy food. I don't think I've ever gotten the proverbial ring of fire from spicy food.

Re: EXTREME FOOD.
I'll just leave this here then...
Bunny Chow - when life has lost its edge, try mystery-meat-in-a-bun drowning in molten lava
While I enjoy the odd curry, I prefer food with flavour over the nuclear meltdown school of cuisine.
When I saw the topic title, I thought it would be "extreme" as in "I can't believe I just ate that!", (which covers most of my trips to China), or comparisons in "local delicacies".
