In case anyone was wondering: Mammals are the only ones that feel the pain effect from spicy foods. It comes from something called capsaicin that mimics a neurotransmitter that translates to pain or injury from heat or burning in the brain. Insects would only be deterred by physical heat or acidic properties strong enough to damage their bodies. Birds are also not susceptible to spice and are used by many plants such as the reaper pepper to eat and spread their seeds.

[@kai_maceration]

it's so interesting the chemicals plants produce to deter certain animals from eating them, but we enjoy them for that reason. like caffeine and nicotine are naturally produced insecticides

[@dangerousatomizer6162]

Does the stomach also have receptors for Capsaicin? If it's only the neurotransmitters only giving the illusion of heat, why do I have diarrhoea whenever I eat spicy food? 😢

I rarely see people eating excessively hot food, toss their cookies.. alcohol on the other hand does. when a person binge drinks too fast, the body sees the alcohol as a toxin and you toss it before it has a chance to fully absorb..

[@jobathanroman901]

Capsaicin is the active ingredient in peppers and produces a sensation of burning in any tissue with which it comes into contact. Usually only felt by mammals, hence why the worms do not have an issue eating the pepper.

[@JaSon-wc4pn]

I always thought humans where the only creature's to eat chili. Just presumed they repelled bugs

[@BeckJoseR]

It's also a fungicide. Many hypothesis that capsaicin is actually an evolutionary advantage for this reason, and not to prevent predators from eating the fruit. After all, they need their seeds dispersed. Other studies have shown that mammals will learn to like the flavor of capsaicin, which again contradicts past theories on the purpose of capsaicin.

Fun fact: capsaicin, the chemical that makes hot peppers spicy, evolved specifically against mammals. Basically only mammals and birds were eating the peppers, and birds spread seeds way, way better than mammals, so the ones with more capsaicin got eaten by more birds and less mammals. What that basically means is that for these meal worms eating Carolina reapers isn't any different than eating a bell pepper since the capsaicin doesn't react with their body chemistry.
