Hello.

I’m picker Doronagi.

When you’re playing Mabinogi Mobile and your enhancement just refuses to hit

When you’re pulling fashion gacha and it still won’t show up until you slam into pity

When you’re playing Blue Archive and the pickup character still hasn’t shown up even by 200 pity

Just imagining it makes your insides start bubbling already..

I can feel the stress piling up already.

Whenever that happens, I start craving spicy food like crazy.

It kind of blows everything open and feels refreshing, you know? Of course the next day is rough, but still.

I can’t eat it that often though.. my dermatologist especially told me not to eat hot food.

But there is one day a year. One day where you can totally use it as an excuse to eat spicy food.

‘International Hot and Spicy Food Day’

‘Every year on January 16’

It’s a day when people around the world eat spicy food, join events, and share their love for spicy food.

What kind of day even is this?

You’re probably like, “Don’t you just want to eat spicy stuff? You pig!”

No really.. it’s real.. nobody seems to know the exact origin or who made it, but it does actually exist!

So I figured I’d introduce a few spicy foods I like.

Buldak Bokkeum Myeon

You all know this one, right? It’s basically the gold standard of “deliciously spicy.”

That Buldak flavor where the first bite is amazing, and then the finish has you going hoo-hah hoo-hah.

Just thinking about it is making my mouth water.

There are a ton of different Buldak versions, but my favorite is definitely Carbo Buldak.

It’s creamy-spicy, so I feel like it goes down a little easier than regular Buldak.

Jadam Chicken Mapshulang

Okay, time for an honesty confession.

I’m actually terrible at spicy food...

Mapshulang comes in mild and regular, and I only eat the mild one.

For someone weak to spice like me, even the mild version is plenty spicy.

But even the mild Mapshulang has that really good delicious-spicy thing going on, so it’s nice to get once in a while.

If you’re actually super good with spicy food though, try the regular one.

Fire Thigh Burger and Whole Leg Crispy Chicken Burger Fire Hot

If the Thigh Burger is savory-delicious, then the Fire Thigh Burger is numbing-delicious.

I don’t eat it often, but it’s one of those spicy flavors I randomly start craving now and then.

There was even a Fire Fire Fire Fire Thigh Burger at one point too.

And similarly, Lotteria came out with a new one this time,

the Whole Leg Crispy Chicken Burger Fire Hot, and it had that same tingly spicy kick.

I took one bite and yep, the sauce had that tingly heat.

Even after I finished it, that numbing spicy flavor was still lingering.

Now that I’ve written this out, these are all pretty famous picks...

What spicy foods do you all like?

I’m not giving you anything or anything lol, but how about eating some spicy food today?

Thank you.
