This is mild racism.
Jokes aside it kinda is, but as a white guy who actually like hot food I've also been known to say "and don't make it white guy spicy, be real"
I've heard that people with high tolerance for alcoholic beverages also have high tolerance for extreme spicy foods.
Apparently certain opiod receptors respond to both alcohol and spicy foods. There's also an interesting relation between getting an endorphin rush from eating spicy foods and naltrexone — I guess people who really like spicy foods respond better to the drug.
I usually say that that in Indian restaurants because some of the ones near me will definitely hold back otherwise. One time the server asked me like 5 times if I was sure and there wouldn't be a refund if I couldn't handle it. I said bring it on and he watched me eat it from across the restaurant in amazement lol. It was the spiciest curry I've ever had, absolutely wrecked my stomach that night, 10/10.
I worked at Denny's and I always asked "Ranch?" when people got fries. One day an AlphaMacho™ man literally got up from his seat and loudly said "is that because I'm white?!" and I was stunned, then my manager - a Cowboys loving, Harley riding, neon-red redneck - popped up from around the corner and said "Hey calm down little man, everybody always gets ranch with their fries, boy's just trying' to save time"
