    The solution is actually to become a bird, as their tongues do not perceive that sort of spice.

      Depends on why it’s spicy, if it’s from red peppers that’s capsicin which birds can’t sense, but if it’s from any of the other spice compounds many can. As an example, the spice reaction to radishes is the same in avians. Black pepper is a more mild reaction but they still can detect it.
