Common in dating-app bios ("spicy chats only 🌶️"), thirst-trap captions and gossip-content reactions. The slang read dominates among Gen Z; the food read still leads in older / cooking contexts.

A red face with its tongue out and small water droplets, looking sweaty. Reads two ways: "you're attractive / I'm attracted to you" (the dominant read) and "this is too hot to handle" (literal heat / spicy food / heatwave).
