Back in the 1960s I was in the Peace Corps in Eritrea (northern Ethiopia),
and the food is extremely spicy. There is no doubt that pregnant women ate
spicy food. After the little bundles of joy were born, the mothers would
dip their fingers into a bowl of spicy stew and let the little babies lick
their fingers. Thus, from very very very early in life, these little
toddlers ate hot food. It was no problem at all for them. I was a school
teacher, and one of my students told me that eating hot/spicy food makes
you "strong".
To change the subject, there is a book about blood types by Dr. Peter J.
D'Adamo in California. He says that Type A blood types should avoid all
hot peppers, and even bell peppers. I am Type A, but I have never had any
trouble with eating peppers. Apparently Type Os can eat all they like.
Type As are the vegetarian type, who have "delicate" digestive tracts; but
Type Os are the original Neanderthal descendants, who are
stomach-acid-producing meat eaters. Anybody else have any comments on
this? Seasons Greetings. Rob
