Acid With Acid

[hotwine]

I wouldn't be at all surprised if the "personal preference" that Bucko describes is really driven by differences in individuals' body chemistry. For exampble, I have a tolerance for hot sauces that send others high-tailin' it for the nearest water trough. Suspect that even slight variations in body chemistry could have noticeable affects on taste sensation from one person to another. Also suspect the same sort of thing applies to differences between men and women in their perceptions of taste - females have got all those magic potions coursin' through their bods, making their sense of taste infinitely variable (and unpredictable).
