This is it
The best way to cool off the mouth is to take a piece of bread (preferably a grainy one as it lasts longer than wonder bread) and chew on it working the bread with saliva.
Saliva breaks down the carbs in the bread to sugars that cool of the mouth and take the heat off. It is also very good to slowly chew all food you eat. It is the best way by far.

Re: Best beverage for spicy foods?
Water is clearly wrong. I don't need to go into why this is so, it's been done before.
To develop the Scoville Scale , I am pretty sure a sugar solution was used to dilute the burn from the peppers tested. It stands to reason that sugary drinks like Coke would help ease the burn. Beer has a fair bit of sugar in it as well, so that would do just fine. -Diplomat

Re: Best beverage for spicy foods?
Armenians have a drink called Tahn that is yogurt based and it really kills any spicyness in your mouth. It's definitely an acquired taste, but goes really well with spicy Mediterranean food.
