In this house... I started out using horseradish (BBACH - Before Being
A Chile-Head) in Kraft Mac & Cheese (REALLY! Delish! TO DIE FOR!!!) to
unclog my sewer-like sinuses... Then I became a 'Head, and now use any
pepper, in some form, in a recipe.
The SO swears by anything hotter than a jalapeno. Anything, and his fav
is cayenne. He says it leaves his tongue "alone," but gets his throat,
sinuses (head) "all cleared."
Both he and I either suffer from allergies (him) or just rotten, crappy
sinuses (me).
We SWEAR by hot chiles as a natural - EFFECTIVE - way of clearing our
heads. We can't - literally - live w/o them.

P.S. Damn! But they taste good too!!!
