    I like mild-medium spicy food.  I don't like it so spicy that you feel you can't breathe.

    I used to like it moderately to very spicy. But with age comes heartburn. I don't even use black pepper any more.  :(

    Usually between "not very" and "mild". Might stretch to "kind of hot" for noodle-based dishes, especially if the sauce contains coconut milk, as that way the creaminess and oiliness of the sauces somewhat offsets the capsaicin in the chili peppers.

    It depends on the dish, but I will say no more than very spicy on most dishes.

    Mexican has to make me sweat or it's pointless. Other foods mild to medium.
