on the topic of culinary cowardice.
hello people of earth, have you ever noticed when you buy some "hot" salsa its more like in between tomato sauce spiciness and mild. I have noticed this is a common occurrence throughout the western world and its fucken stupid I shouldn't have to bring my own hot sauce to a restaurant like really. but then you go to a legit asian restaurant and you order some apparently non spicy food and you gotta ask for some milk cuz your crying and shit from the chili. can't we all just get along?

I think its not because people are wimps when it comes to spicy food (well some of them are), but its down to regional preferences because in one place they may enjoy spicy foods while in another they hate it.
Some real culinary cowardice that I've seen is that people are not willing to try different foods like durian or fish-head curry which throws people for a bit of a loop

Nothing wrong carrying your own hot sauce.
Also true culinary cowardice is when a chef is so dead set in their ways and refuse to learn new shit because they think it's shit when they come from the land of Fancy France where all food looks the same, taste the same and plated the same.
