Last time at the indian restaurant I specifically stated I want the (true) spicy variant.

Food was barely eatable.

Next time I'll return it if they give me the bland version again.

As a white guy this is the hard part of ordering Thai or Indian. I want the spicy version, not the white guy spicy version. But, if I emphasize that, then they end up giving me beyond the spicy version to mess with me. So I just order the spicy version and sometimes it's perfect while other times it's too mild and disappointing.

Man that sucks. I hate when people assume that white people can’t handle spice. I’m brown, but I know some white friends that love spice.

It's about the only racial discrimination I face, so in perspective it's not a bad deal for me.
