I'm still trying to figure out how I can eat stuff so spicy/hot it makes me break out in a sweat, but a simple bell pepper - even cooked - even if it's been cooked in something and I pick it out, and eat around it, but the flavor is still there - gives me the most wicked indigestion you can imagine. Lasts for *days*.

That's like me with peanut butter. I know IBSers arn't supposed to have it, because of its fat content, but I don't have any problems with it. I've been eating it since I was about 3 or 4. Of course, if I overdo it, as with anything else, I then get problems. But, yeah.

Yes, to all three. However, onions can give me gas sometimes. I don't mind, but I'm sure those around me do  Therefore, I only eat onions when I don't have to worry about the aftermath.

Actually, peanut butter is fine - it's fairly safe protein so long as you don't have loads of it. It's definitely one of my staples!
Oh, and garlic and onions are just fine with me (particularly when they're cooked well). I'm ok with spicy food, so long as it's only once or twice a week. I'm not a real heatseeker (outside of the great hummus with hot sauce I got the other day - yum!), though, so that may not really be an IBS limitation.

Ditto. If I indulge in peppers, I cannot get the taste/residue out of my stomach for days and it's just not worth it! It's not something I can eat around/ignore...there's something about bell peppers that just stains the food! I've tried them roasted/peeled, however...I think it's just something I've had my whole life with bell peppers. It's too bad because they are so colourful. Just looking at them makes my bum burn, though!
Chilles, on the otherhand don't bug me a bit. Weird.
Kate, IBS-D.

I also can eat all three and eat spicy Thai very often. I use a lot of garlic too; DH likes all of that stuff!

I can handle WELL cooked onions- they have to be cooked until clear.. or powdered onion..
Garlic has never (thankfully) been an issue
as far as hot pepper, etc spice- mild is ok, even most peoples idea of medium, but if it gets too hot it causes issues... and since my DH is king of superhot and grows and processes his own hot peppers I have to find ways around it

I can eat Garlic & onion, well cooked, but I'm cautios with the spicy. Right before I had this past flare-up with IBS, I was eating alot of spicey stuff. I would put red crushed pepper on almost anything! No more for me.
It's funny, looking back now, how bad I was eating right before my IBS kicked in again.

So far those things do not bother me.
