I used to like spicy food. I wasn't the type to drink hot sauce straight or eat ghost peppers or anything like that but ate pretty spicy food frequently as my wife likes it. Then, about three years ago, it's like God flipped a switch and I suddenly couldn't eat it all. The reaction to capsaicin is now crazy over-the-top. It's incredibly painful for some reason. I've even reacted to spicy dill pickles, much to my embarrassment. It sucks as it limits a lot of what I used to eat. I still don't know why it changed. I can handle horseradish hot just fine but not capsaicin hot.
