I am a bit worried—the papadum we got with our dinner was painfully spicy, and (a) it appears to have been black pepper, as far as ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
cattitude could tell, and (b) didn't seem spicy to him, which if this becomes a pattern will make it hard for him to check spiciness levels for me.
(I am also rather congested, but that seems unlikely to be the cause of this.)
ETA: Adrian has pointed out that large amounts of black pepper will mask red pepper. And I know that, these days, it may not take much red pepper to be painful for me.
