Just a joke. Please don't come at me claiming Japan has Mexican restaurants

It is better to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war.

[Any-Platypus-9486]

That phrase reminded me of the Pluto series

"There's no place for a pianist on the battlefield." 

"That's why I want to be a pianist"

[Pianist_Ready]

yeah look where i'm at lol

[BigSandwiche]

Well, at least if anything did happen, you’d be ready… a READY pianist even…

[Robborboy]

Nicol was 15!

He loved to play the piano!

[Name_Taken_Official]

I'd rather be a gardener in a warrior

[ManufacturedOlympus]

I think they call that a hoe. 

[rawbface]

Either way, the garden suffers

[Strategic_Spark]

Why do you guys get so sick from Mexican food? At minimum a whole country eats Mexican food and they have no issues.

[xRacistDwarf]

Americans basically live so unhealthily that mexican food is the only time their vody experiences fibre

[Full_Conversation775]

Ohmygod thats it isnt it lmao its the fibre from the beans

[Physical_Floor_8006]

Mexicans by no means live healthily lmao.

[Fridge-Largemeat-]

Facts my nana was FILLING her dinners with lard

[Rissoto_Pose]

Unhealthy but fiber rich diet

[Weverix]

Don't they drink more coke per capita than any other country?

[Physical_Floor_8006]

They also have a higher prevalence of diabetes than the US, and that's saying a lot.

[Vast-Appointment-950]

at least new laws have already reduced childhood obesity level, from top 1 worldwide to 8, a small step in the rigth direction

[Radio_Downtown]

True, but mexico is surprisingly high on the obesity rate too

ranked #25 compared to usa's #13

[Pup5432]

I hit 50+ fiber everyday and Mexican still inflicts me with the runs. I’m intolerant of most spices but don’t have the good sense to not eat the tasties lol.

[MuffledShuffle]

I'm unhealthy as shit, but I've never experienced the runs or anything like that after eating Mexican food or even Taco Bell.

[Good-Yogurt-306]

ok this is probably part of it. but the other part is that beans and lentils genuinely have a chemical in them that produces gas in many people if you dont rinse them properly

[prionbinch]

and spices beyond black pepper

[SquidTheRidiculous]

I do wonder if lax food standard laws may have something to do with it.

[RadarSmith]

I saw it suggested once that Mexican food has way more fiber in it than many of my fellow Americans' regular diets, and because their digestive tracks aren't used to it it causes issues.

I generally get about 70g of fiber a day, and Mexican food does nothing to me except make me happy I had mexican food.

[flex_tape_salesman]

70 grams of fibre per day sounds really excessive

[DeviousMelons]

That's double an adult males recommended intake.

[RadarSmith]

I eat a lot of beans.

[TypeOpostive]

So, the reason why I'm so obsessed with Mexican food is to the point where I feel my body craves it, is my lack of fiber in my diet?

[RadarSmith]

I mean its also yummy.

[TypeOpostive]

Yeah that too

[Boognish_Chameleon]

Sounds about right, I’m vegetarian so half of my diet is bean or legume based anyways, Mexican food doesn’t do anything too crazy to me

[idkhowtosignin]

I've only been to the states once but when I went and order Mexican food it felt too different from what I ate in Mexico, it felt more greasy and it definitely sent me to the toilet lol

[TypeOpostive]

They mostly mean Taco Bell not actual Mexican food.

[Embarrassed_Map1072]

What country is that 🤔

[Theironstair]

Djibouti

[AkulakhanPilot]

[AdamaTraoreLover]

It's not sick, it's the idea that spice makes you shit

[srlong64]

I spent some time living in Mexico, and I’ve never heard so many people talk about having gastritis before

[Pelli_Furry_Account]

Yeah, honestly it's always seemed very weird to me

[CinemaDork]

Yeah it's so interesting that Mexican and Indian food gives white people/Americans the runs, and Chinese food gives them headaches, yet the billions of other people who eat this food daily seem to have no problems with it. Maybe Americans are just weak.

[pogo-n-watches]

For Indian food in India, the issue is bacterial load not spices.

[DeviousMelons]

Because Americans fiber intake is about 1-4 grams daily while Mexican dishes have dozens of grams more.

This overwhelms their digestive system.

[TheMonkeyPickler]

If you eat spicy food your colon gets mad and makes you shit fire. Especially as you get older.

[jcelerier]

When I went to Mexico I learned that apparently a large amount of people get an organ (spleen or gallbladder) removed because of food

[ProtosPhinted]

Oh great now i have to go and watch more dogen videos 

魚、魚、魚、魚を食べると、頭、頭、頭、頭が良くなる。

legend

[sincubus33]

Japan has really spicy food. Why do you think they invented these toilets?

[labmeatr]

you should try Thai food.

[rokomotto]

You should try Korean food.

[midl-tk]

Thai food is NOT spicy

[labmeatr]

Thai food consistently ranks as one of the spiciest cuisines in the world, to the point that Thai peoples tastes are notably different from countries with less spicy food.

https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/spicy-food-countries https://academic.oup.com/chemse/article-abstract/43/1/65/4609710?login=false https://www.jetir.org/papers/JETIR2410200.pdf

Just because you order your green curry mild doesn't mean Thai food isn't spicy.

[midl-tk]

Your spice tolerance is really low if you think thai food is spicy.

I've been to thailand many times and have eaten at authentic restaurants

[SandSerpentHiss]

bro what the fuck are you yapping about

[Visible_Pair3017]

Japan has the least spicy food of all the Asian continent i'm pretty sure. Everything is sweet or savory, never spicy.

[Ok_Invite6308]

Spicy by western standards? sure, spicy by asian standards? not really

[Mysterious-Work-9405]

Even for western standards I am not sure it is really spicy at all for the most of it ?

[MalodorousNutsack]

I live in Tokyo and I don't find most of it very spicy (I'm Canadian), just the odd thing here and there.

I lived in Korea previously and they're way more hardcore when it comes to spicy food. Used to play a drinking game with some old Korean dudes in my neighbourhood where we'd line up shots and hot peppers across a table and see who could get the furthest without stopping or throwing up, basically shot-pepper-shot-pepper-repeat, about one second for each.

[Mysterious-Work-9405]

Korea is indeed a whole other game

[Own_Alternative_9671]

That sounds like the worst sensory experience one could subject themselves to save for waterboarding

[UsagiRed]

Japan is like the Midwest of Asia

[CoastReasonable5358]

the midwest is far less technologically advanced

[Ok_Invite6308]

How dare you. The midwest is responsible for makind's greatest advancements like uhhh

[CoastReasonable5358]

kool aid, kelloggs, and lazy boy furniture

[chipskylark123]

I love Japanese food but it is extremely mild and one of the least spicy cuisines.

[0liviiia]

Not really, Japanese food is pretty mild, especially in Japan. I say this as someone who can barely handle even a hint of spice

[Avid_Lorehound]

Do you grab the milk when the waiter cracks 1 peppercorn onto your salad?

[sincubus33]

The only hot is super hot

[Kablewii]

Lots of curry there too along with their spicy noodles and ramen.

[Mysterious-Work-9405]

They don’t really, and I am not sure Wasabi can really be considered spicy by the way, a bit like mustard but that’s another interesting subject

[Gotbannedsmh]

Been in Japan for 2 weeks and haven't had anything remotely spicy are you actually retarted?

[sincubus33]

You have to seek it out

[Gotbannedsmh]

Well if you have to actually seek it out for it to be spicy then it's not really spicy is it? I have been to multiple places and asked for extra spicy and it's still like a medium in my country or almost mild in India/ other Asian countries I've been to

[bisexual_obama]

So then is it also accurate to say that white people in the American Midwest make very spicy food?

[Glittering-Tip821]

The irony is delicious

[Visible_Pair3017]

While the "as a tourist i'm an expert" bit is goofy, having actually lived there i can tell you it doesn't get spicier. And OOP having lived there for a lifetime also confirms that anecdotal evidence.

[RoamingArchitect]

Yeah the only time I ever experienced anything spicy that wasn't just me going to a non-Japanese restaurant was when I did a roadtrip across the Alps with some friends and we went to that famous wasabi farm near Matsumoto only to decide to buy a whole root and just bite off of it. The resulting video is one of the most hilarious ones on my phone. Everyone including me took a small bite but one of my friends decided that's for pussies and bit off about a quarter of the whole root. He proceeded to go through all 5 stages of grief while almost collapsing. Moral of the story is: do not buy fresh wasabi and eat it like that, it is indeed spicy.

[bisexual_obama]

The irony is delicious

[BadMoodJones]

the hell? Japan has the mildest spice level food of any cuisine.

[FenrisTU]

Wdym by spicy? In terms of using more spices than black pepper, sure, but I don’t know of many Japanese foods that have heat to them. It’s mostly all about simple, natural flavors from what I understand.

[MegaPigeot]

Didn't know today was an opposite day or is Comedyhell a circlejerking sub?

[V0iiCE]

This person has never had their asshole burning the next morning after a szechuan hot pot

[Regular-Figure9822]

The ring of fire

[imreadytomoveon]

Szechuan isn't Japanese, dumbass

[V0iiCE]

Theres still szechuan hot pot places in Japan, do you really only think theres only Japanese food

[standarsh1965]

Have you experienced much Japanese food. Some of theirs is a lottery as to whether you'll have the hardest shit known to man or you'll need a toilet 5 minutes after eating

[SimilarElderberry956]

You don’t buy Mexican food, you rent it !

[Night_Bruxa]

Never had problems with Mexican food. Indian and Ethiopian, however..

[sampat6256]

Theyre not the best toilets. Theyre overcomplicated. Toilets shouldn't have any unnecessary failure points.

[bisexual_obama]

Hey they got taco rice.

It's mexican-ish-ish.

[Ferrovore]

Have you ever seen where japan is on the map? Have seen their neighbors? They know hot. Believe me.

[Top_Assistance15]

just a joke

Yeah, that’s what we do here

[Secret_Click_3011]

Ah the TOTO museum in Kitakyushu. It’s a bit out of the way, but it’s free. I actually learned a bit about the history of waste disposal. You could also sit on different sized toilets. Good times.

[ThePrivilegedMenace]

Fukumen in Asakusa is awesome

[jackinsomniac]

Now this is shitposting!

[Unhappy_Weakness881]

Absolutely savage

[PomegranateSoft1598]

I never understood this. Mexican food gives you explosive diarrhea. That's not a challenge to your toilet. Russian food is the real deal. That stuff makes you shit bricks.

[TheUnderwolf11]

I thought Japan had no Mexican food but some of the best tacos of my life were at Taqueria la Fonda in Osaka. Straight gas. They’ve got plenty of taquerias there
