Ah, now that is a wise precaution. I can use it to cleanse my skin of the capsaicin. As for what I would pick for this exchange...
[Glacius thinks about it for a moment, then starts to head towards the tables adorned with all sorts of foods, gesturing for Michael to follow. He's headed towards a spread that seems to be primarily of seafood; there are some oysters, some sushi and sashimi, as well as various other things that might be less identifiable to a human. Some of it looks to be made from various other types of protein, like beef or venison, often paired with vegetables or eggs.] Here. This is probably the closest to what my people eat. As we stray from heat and absorb specific nutrients, our bodies have adapted to not need the same sort of preparation for our meals that you humans do. To explain it as succinctly as possible we favor frozen, uncooked meats; we also like dense tubers and grains that can provide our bodies with plenty of energy.
We tend to eat for efficiency and not for pleasure or flavor, though, so I do not blame you if this is a bit out of your comfort zone. I have seen other humans eating these things but understand that your tastes vary on the subject... it is quite interesting.
