I told someone once how I'm such a lightweight when it comes to spicy foods. Told her I once put about 5 flakes of pepper on some potatoes and literally broke out into a sweat halfway through the meal.
So as a joke that year, I received a package of hot sauce, peppers, jalapeno's, red pepper, cayan pepper etc etc etc... I've also gotten the nickname of "5 flakes" around her house.
This was years ago, and I still cant bring myself to toss out all the stuff I will NEVER use... ever!
With normal shopping I just try to be smart, but yeah I still throw crap away and I dont like to, but I figure if it winds up in a landfill it'll at least be organic. If I had a decent yard, I'd compost everything possible and that'd be not so bad.
BTW yeah, I can remember the first time my mother tried to get me to eat something I gagged on because there's starving people, and I said then lets send this to them, because it tastes gross... didnt go over very well.
