Answer:

But this active compound reacts with our body's defense mechanism, when we consume foods that are rich in spice; Our system tries to fight back with the irritant resulting in burning sensation, runny nose and watery eyes.

Our eyes may become watery when we eat very spicy foods. The capsaicin or allyl isothiocyanate can irritate the membranes in our eyes, causing the tear ducts to kick into overdrive trying to wash the irritant away. This can make our nose even more runny as some of the tears drain into your sinuses.
