It's been said that "variety is the spice of life" by a variety of people in a nearly endless enumeration of various walks of life. Indeed, similar sentiments can be found divulged in languages and cultures all over the world.
This is, of course, considered very different from spice used in regards to food. Spicy food is a source of pleasure for many, but also a source of heartburn and intestinal issues that render said consumption folly.
In many ways, then, one might say both "the spice of life" and "spicy hell ramen in Chicago" are, actually, extremely similar. For to pursue the former - vis a vis variety - one must often confront intestinal discomfort brought on by anxiety and stress, such that may upset one's stomach, not unlike one who struggles with chili peppers or ghost peppers consuming copious amounts of very spicy food. The end result, the present author supposes, is the same for both forms of consumption; uncomfortable trips to the bathroom and internal questioning of whether this or anything else is, indeed, worth it.
