2015年ESL之餐饮娱乐 12 Eating Spicy Foods（在线收听）

ESL Podcast 1165 – Eating Spicy Foods 

Akim: Oh, this is so good! Why are your eyes watering? 

Wendy: It’s so spicy! When you invited me over for curry, I didn’t know it’d be so hot. 

Akim: This is mild or maybe medium. I make another version of this that’s much hotter. In fact, I like mine with some extra peppers and some hot sauce. Do you want any? 

Wendy: Are you kidding me?! The roof of my mouth is on fire. 

Akim: You must have very sensitive taste buds. This has a little kick to it and it’s pungent and zesty, but it’s not too spicy. 

Wendy: You must have no taste buds at all if you think this is mild. My mouth needs to cool down from all that heat. I need more water – now! 

Akim: All right, but you don’t want to fill up on water. I’ve made a special dessert. 

Wendy: Is that supposed to be mild, too? 

Akim: No, that really is spicy!
