I think Elian can tolerate pretty hot food for a little guy. Whenever Ed and I are eating something that I think will be too spicy for Elian, he always wants to try it, glass of milk at the ready. He's grown very interested in cayenne pepper and our family's love of spicy foods. And sometimes it seems like he's trying to prove to us that he's a big boy and can therefore eat spicy foods. I always tell him that it's okay if he just likes it a little spicy -- maybe he'll like it spicier when he gets older. The other day he said this:
"When I get older, maybe I can take a whole big jar of cayenne pepper and dump it in my mouth!"
