Me mouth's on fire!!
I picked up a lovely looking meal in Asda the other day. Pulled pork in bbq sauce and potato wedges.Looked gorgeous, and included some melted cheese in a ton of sauce. Took a lick from the spoon. Aaaargghhhh!!
They didn't tell me it would be like eating the hottest curry! I ate with, with plenty of bread, and then water. It would have been very nice but I could hardly taste the pork, because of the overpowering spices, which now I'm reading the full list of ingredients, include:
garlic powder
pimento
black pepper
chopped red chillies
garlic puree
ginger puree
sweet paprika
smoked paprika
cinnamon
allspice
cumin seeds
Some are traces, some in bigger quantities.
Overspiced? Spice overload?
Going to complain, obs. Far far too hot for my liking. No indication on the top of the sleeve that it was spicy.

Ouch! Janet I wouldn't find that pleasurable at all. I made the mistake of once ordering an innocent sounding pasta meal at a local Italian restaurant only to find it HOT HOT HOT !!!!!! My face gets red in any case but that night it was a burning furness!!!!!
