I'll point you back to your previous post:

"Nonsense! I have GERD. Spicy food is not a problem".

That is just untrue and you would know that if you truly had it. Granted, not everyone who is diagnosed with GERD has a problem with spicy foods. That's probably because a lot of people diagnosed with it don't really have it. You say you were diagnosed with it, yet you seem to not have any of the typical symptoms. Just like you claim to have been diagnosed with all kinds of maladies.

Don't make blanket statements when you don't know what you are talking about. A little bit of tobasco may not bother you, but it does bother millions of others with GERD.
