David Eddings once wrote of a group of people that they "try to set fires in each other's stomachs." I think that is what they do here in Malaysia and in Thailand. They are very tricky about it too, because you cautiously take a bite and the flavor is so amazing you dive right in, not really aware at first of the burning pain in your lips and on your tongue.
Then, as your eyes are watering and you've drained all the liquid from your glass, even though you know that is only temporary respite, and you are sucking in mouthfuls of air in a vain attempt to relieve the overwhelming pain, you eat more.
Yes, that's right, you eat more, because it tastes so darn good.
