Really interesting...now maybe I can call myself a super taster
and sound all fancy when I try to sheepishly explain why I can't handle hot sauces/spicy. It's actually pretty embarrassing living around so much tex-mex type food and I can only handle mild salsa without frying my taste buds off. I've taken *much* teasing about it. Then again, I've been known to be able to pick out all the flavors/ingredients of folks' secret specialty food dishes (as long as it's not something I find real spicy - then I can't taste anything).
Completely fascinating and years of teasing explained.
Redemption is mine!
Haaaarumph... I'm a super taster.
PS
Yes, I'm still all heart pounding, wide-wake, jacked-up on caffeine from those brownies at 2:30am. *sigh*
