There are no "masses", just your guests. I personally feel that spicing
should be limited to what the guest's least spicy desires are. I do
push it a little though, sometimes. We keep lots of hot sauces and such
on the table. It's pretty easy to spicy up your food at the table, but
not possible to reduce spiciness for those who find it too hot. Since
the turkey might be the main dish, it doesn't seem fair to make it too
spicy for some folks. Of course, if you have other main dishes, that
changes things considerably.
