You forgot to mention garlic. There was a time I would eat a clove of raw garlic a day for many health reasons it would burn my mouth like fire

Dan, I really enjoy your episodes. However, I haven't finished watching this one yet (I know, it's more than a year old but I don't know why I hadn't watched until now) and I have to know which book is the one shown at 0:57. It seems to be a dictionary or glossary and I LOVE books on language. I'm a translator and I collect dictionaries :D So, would you please tell me? Also, crossing my fingers that you can read this comment a year and a half later hahaha Thanks!

I enjoyed this video and was surprised to learn that the Ginger-related compounds fit into the same receptor as capsaicin. I've always appreciated the science approach of ATK and Cook's Illustrated. There is a minor mistake in the chemical structures at ~ 3:46. The OH group should be opposite the main chain (or at the 4 position on the benzene ring) and the CH3O group should be at the 3 position on the ring.
