i do this too, but it doesn't stop me from eating spicy food when i'm out. people must think i'm weird sweating and wiping my brow with one hand and shoveling more spicy food in with the other.

my dad is the same way. my mom & bro are not.

apparently it's a physiological trait, though some do it more than others. See this link for an in-depth expanation: http://www.sciam.com/article.cfm?id=why-is-it-that-eating-spi

It's because when you consume spicy food it raises your body temepture and thus you sweat alittle bit to cool down.
