Why it is not a common knowledge that in hot heat and humid foods to limit or avoid altogether for the time of the extreme heat are:
- starches.. rice.. potatoes..
- gluten .. pastas.. breads..
- salty foods
- salt
- meat
- spicy food

Feel free to add to the list and add foods that are good and light.

Have you met Mexico? Or any temperature-hot country?

Or India? Or SE Asia? Or parts of Africa?

I'm going to guess OP is white. Very white. Because they are clueless about the climates and cuisines of places that aren't European.

I'm guessing she's from an Eastern European country where women chain smoke, nibble on bland food, and drink vodka.

I couldn't tell you what other people eat at restaurants because I don't notice...or care...or judge.

Hey.. insult OP all you want, but I am pp from Yugoslavia and lived in Africa... I live off of spicy food, we eat hot peppers(not me allergic but everyone else), we don't drink no vodka, sljivovica and Irish Whiskey if we are being posh! My kids' first solid food was spicy chicken curry. I love, love as do my kids and dh spicy food, I add Tabasco and everything and my kids think Sriracha is ketchup!(ok, but jokes aside, people in Yugoslavia do eat spicy food more than other Eastern Europeans that I've met(so just speaking for those I know) and even in my country we are an anomaly, bland food sucks so, so much!)

You are the one who is insulting. I’m Eastern European and Yugoslavia isn't a country. The former Yugoslavia works, but don’t insult the rest of us easteen Europeans.

OK. Sorry, I am from former Yugoslavia, I was just joking. Do you eat spicy food in your country of origin? Do you forgive me?

If it was a country when you were there, it’s fine to say Yugoslavia. I don’t get people sometimes.

In this weather, after my dad had been out all day mowing and weeding and digging fence post holes, he’d come inside to take a break and drink a beer that he had sprinkled with salt.

Not sarcasm. Lol. I just had to put that out there to see if OP got the vapors.

Are you Mexican? This is a very Mexican habit

No. My dad is an old white country guy born in the 30s. We grew up here outside of DC.
