Spicy Foods Avoidance
 
Avoiding spicy foods is not the same as avoiding spices. For example, there are 'non-spicy' spices in ice cream (vanilla), donuts (cassia or cinnamon), tomato sauce (allspice), cheesecake (nutmeg) and doner kebabs (sumac). Spices with 'hot' tastes, which are to be avoided for some conditions, include chilli, pepper, or horseradish. It is easy to avoid these and still have wonderfully flavourful food.
