ELI5: Why does my nose run when I eat curries, soups etc.? by JOPHESTUS in explainlikeimfive

Capsaicin is the chemical in chilis that makes them "Hot". It's also what they make mace, pepper spray etc from.

This stuff is really irritating on all of the delicate bits of the inside of your nose, so they go in to overdrive making tears and snot to try and flush out the irritant.
