A simple test for the "Nay Sayers" regarding spice's and pepper now added to almost all foods. Buy an order, including take out at "Carrabb's" and include their mashed potatoes and test them for spice/pepper. Not med's, age, etc etc just plain a lot hotter food than in other years ago. Know the peppers years ago in eating Italian food and this is creeping near that BUT not at that level.
