[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I made a delicious[b] cajun [/b]chicken pasta a couple weeks ago. It wasn't [b]spicy as in hot, but it did have quite a few spices in it.[/b] Very flavorful. My DH, who is also a picky eater,[b] took a few bites [/b]and said, "[b]I just don't like spices[/b]." : ( 
It gets difficult being married to a picky eater, so just be glad you only have to deal with it with in laws! [/quote]

I am what you would consider a picky eater. However, some of it is not mere preference. What is "barely spicy" to you will physically burn my tongue and take 2-3 days to go away. What is "warm" temperature-wise to you, will also burn my mouth, and my body perceives as very hot.

I really DO understand that it's frustrating for you. But please understand with hot or spicy foods it's literally physically painful for some of us out there. [/quote]

ok, but that is not the situation the PP is stating. She is talking about her DH who is fine eating spices, he is just too particular to want to try. [/quote]

He DID try. He didn't like it. [/quote]

There is a difference between "he didnt like that particular dish" and "he just generally doesnt like spices". Yes he may have "tried" it. But he certainly didnt give it a chance. He was acting like a spoiled kid. In my house if you cant point out what it is that you don't like, you are not taken seriously. "spices" as a whole, meaning ALL spices, is not a valid "dislike" [/quote]
