    I agree. But if I give you table sugar and you tell me it’s spicy, then that’s not a question of spice tolerance. You just don’t know what the word spicy means.

    Although, come to think of it, if you think ketchup is spicy, you may want to check if you’re allergic to one of the ingredients. Regular ketchup is absolutely not spicy.

      I mean, yeah, obviously sugar isn’t spicy, but that’s because there are no spices in it. Ketchup is made with spices and is tangy from vinegar. So you never know how people perceive it.
