I just say "come on man, look at me, of course it's gonna be mild."

I am white but my name is not. I also don't do hotter than fresh jalapeños, but enjoy a tamed heat on the plate (like the BWW spicy garlic sauce). It's always a gamble ordering food. Usually it's either too mild or too hot. With too mild I can just put hot sauce on my own, at least.

Northern white mild boys vs. southern white anal prolapse hot sauce gang

I'd say it's racist if they try to "protect" you from spicier sauces. Like if you ask for medium and they try to give you mild.

Have those sauces even really been spicy?

Diablo has some kick, it's not pleasurable to put multiple packets per item for me.

When diablo sauce first hit, it was reasonably hot. It burned for a good couple of minutes. They've reduced it a bit now, but it's still hot enough to scratch the itch for spicy, just not enough to trigger everyone's endorphins.

This has happened to me too.

I just assumed it was because white people love a good complain when their food, that specifically has chilli as an ingredient, is too spicy for them.

The Thai restaurant in my middle US city had to change mild to medium on their menus because people complained it was too spicy. Medium switched to hot and hot became 'Thai hot'.
