I have never tried curry of any type. Although I am Texan, I don't have much of a tolerance for spicey food. When having mexican, I avoid anything that has jalapenos or salsa, or ask if I can get it without.
I'm the same way. But if another person wants to eat five-alarm-hot spicy food, go for it. Just don't offer me any,
EDIT: The recipe looks very nice. I'll have to make the wimpy taste bud version.

Admittedly I'd like to try it. And I have been known to eat jalapenos, in a vane attempt to increase my tolerance. I used to get a few slices every day when I worked at that call center. There was a Taco Bueno right up the street that I'd go to.

Me too. Obviously the smell was strong enough to be smelt since she commented on it. Even though it was only nuked a short bit and there was plenty of ventilation, she might just be very sensitive to it. I personally can smell perfume or cologne a mile away even if it is a near scentless fragrance and on a windy day............. okay not quite that strong but still............
I KNOW what it is like to smell something that makes me sick and have other people become confused and surpirsed because they smell nothing or used only a bit.
Yes, she went a bit overboard on her reaction, but calling her a whore and wishing harm upon her was really uncalled for, same for assuming she was insulting you.
She hates Curry, the smell nausiates her, she commented on it, she left. Nowhere did I see anything that warrants such a reaction. Did I miss something?
Well, you're right. You're not familiar with my sense of humor - I say 'whore' rather flippantly and use the word a lot. My friends and I call each other whore a lot, jokingly, so when I use it here its not quite as serious as it sounds. I apologize, I know for many people its a serious word indeed. As for wishing her harm - that was a joke too. I would never really wish someone a trip to the ER, lol, thats my way of venting. I am sorry if I offended anyone.
Also, in my defense, the way she came across was extremely bitchy. She wasnt just suprised or repelled by a smell, her manner was very offensive and snotty. Sometimes just words on a page don't convey that too well, but thats why she was a sucky customer.

Alright then.

I have allergies, but I don't expect people to cater to me. Especially a store where someone might have something I can't tolerate.
For example, I'm allergic to latex, do I get pissy when I go to the hospital and it smells like latex? No, I just watch myself and leave/go outside when I start to feel bad.
She could have simply said "I'm sorry, but I'm allergic to curry, I'll have to come back when the smell goes away" and walked out.
And trust me, if you have an allergy/sensitivity to something, you can smell it quicker than others can. I think my nose is trained to smell out latex so I can avoid it.
I remember once as a kid I was spraying vinegar on some french fries at a fair, when some dude yelled at me that I was spraying too much of it, and he's allergic to the stuff.
