      Right, but specifically that joke cannot be made successfully in regions where pepper based spice is common cuisine. Because those people dont have that reaction.

      And a large portion of the US makes that spice a common part of normal meals, thanks to proximity to mexico, or international ports.

      Basically, this is only funny to people in very isolated communities and the central northern states. Both coasts and the south have plenty of spicy influence.
