Why is it...that when you add Hot Peppers, Flakes or anything that has some heat to a dish, it is called Spicy? It’s not spicy at all! Only added heat! (in some cases, real hot, that it makes tears in your eyes!) It should just be called Added Heat! instead of spicy.

  • Why is it that when you add chilies, you call them “peppers”, seeing as pepper is actually a completely unrelated plant? (Worse with those bulbous vegetables that are neither hot nor related to pepper...) Language generally doesn't make sense, and in cooking it seems to be particularly bad. However, I don't really see what annoys you about this particular term – “spice” is, and AFAIK has always been, a big umbrella term that includes all kinds of aromatic, pungent and other stuff.

  • Why would it be called 'added heat'? You haven't changed the temperature
