Skip TB. Go support your local Mexican restaurant, and try their pickled onions with habaneros and work up your tolerance to actually spicy food.
There's a venerable French food restaurant in my town, it's been there for something like 80 years and still going strong.
In her old age back in the 1970s and 80s, the founder of the restaurant, trained in the Cordon Bleu culinary tradition, loved going to Taco Bell! Her friends used to scratch their heads and tried to understand, or talk some sense into her:
"But... that doesn't make sense! Cheddar, ground beef, lettuce and cream in tacos... it's not even real Mexican food!",
to which she replied:
"If I want Mexican food, I'll go get Mexican food. But sometimes I just want Taco Bell!", which is to say she craved some tex-mex.
