Same thing for me, I want to taste food and not just the heat from a spice or pepper. I think I have a moderate tolerance of spicy foods but I don't eat it too often.
I had box curry for 4 dinners straight this week. Used half a box Vermont Curry medium hot (it wasn't the least bit hot), chicken thighs, onions, potato, carrots, peas, broccoli stalk, more water and ingredients than directed. I prefer the sweeter japanese type curry. I've used store bought curry powder before and sweetened it as well, but not adventurous enough to mix my own.
