Is Indian Food More Spicy Than Thai Food?
As someone who loves both, I'd say Thai food can take the spice cake! Those little bird's eye chilies can be insanely hot compared to the typical Indian spices.

In my experience, Indian food focuses more on a complex blend of spices rather than pure spiciness. It's not always about the heat!
Neither is inherently spicier. It depends on the dish and how they're prepared. Research your menu!
It really depends on the dish, but both Indian and Thai cuisines have their fiery options! Indian food uses spices like chili, cumin, and mustard seeds for heat, while Thai cuisine tends to bring the burn with fresh chilies and chili paste. Both can make you sweat, so maybe keep a glass of milk handy!
