1. I know that wild berries make you feel sour food taste sweet. Is there any such equivalent for spicy food? 2. I love spicy food, and I want to know why do people crave spicy food?

Juan

I read somewhere that when people get older, as their taste buds go number, they start to enjoy spicy food way more, have you heard of this, have you maybe noticed this trend?

For shows like this, how do you find & decide who to interview?
