Referring to my previous research on the matter: Food and plants in hot and humid climates are more quickly set upon by insects and mold. Plants that are considered more spicy however, appear to take longer to decompose. This could explain why spicier plants grow in hot climates, using the spice as a deterrent to ward off smaller creatures. Using this as a base we can begin to theorize the climate of distant places by studying the spices common in foreign cultures. As an example what can the mild but hardy Akki seed tell us about the native lands of the Malku Su?
