Chocolate milk helps soothe a mouth thats on fire from spicy food. Keep trying, it will get easier and things will taste a little better in time.
PS....Mike, thank you very much for our kind words! Im here to help others and give back as those gave to me when I needed help. Thats what this site is about, helping each other.
